While I am thankful for the post and the information provided by it, I have to admit that I'm personally not liking the advertising with a hint of propaganda which is originating from it in hinting that other manufacturers are making sub-part blocks and directing people towards the GTZ.

It's one thing to advertise it in one post and then let people discuss, but to talk about something else in such a way as to drive people to a product is pretty low imo...



The way I see it it's kind of going like this:

1: "Beware of bad mounting, stock backplate and uneven mounting could kill your motherboard."
Reader's thoughts: "Oh waow he has a point, I'm now going to be careful when I purchase and search for the words "good retention mechanism".
2: "Aha, you posted a suggestion, but do you have the tools required to make sure it's good?"
Reader's thoughts: "Oooooh nice one... I guess if I don't have a GTZ I might kill my board."






Or maybe I'm just being paranoid
