TG doesn’t have anything down there. The install process is VERY specific on how to install and that includes only an extra 90 degree turn after encountering ANY resistance (aside from just spinning down the screw/bolt). So that means, there is no contact between the frame and board.
As such, all the frame is doing is holding the CPU in place. It doesn’t need any additional torquing or resting on the board.
I like Thermalright’s version because it makes it a lot easier to instal, just torque till it stops (without forcing it). But at the same time, I worry of the frame isn’t thick enough, will there be too much force on the DPU.
