Of course, there is no question of ending up with a Samsung Fold-style Alder Lake. Intel has also commented on the subject, explaining that this had no impact on the proper functioning of its chips and that no action was therefore planned on its side.
Faced with the concern of some users, the Thermalright brand has nevertheless decided to act. His idea takes the form of a small insert that strongly resembles the “3D printing” solutions of some clever people. The accessory is called “LGA1700-BCF” for Bending Corrector Frameor bend correction frame, and should be available now for around $6.
If it is announced compatible with the H610, B660 and Z690 motherboards, the question arises however of its proper functioning with all models and, of course, of its availability in Europe.
