Thermal Grizzly AM5 Contact Sealing Frame or Thermalright AM5 CPU Contact Frame V2

Does it matter ? they both do the same job right ? its just the grizzly one is out of stock everywhere also the thermal grizzly one comes with a piece of foam that goes under the contact plate.... i can buy the foam separately and its in stick will the foam fit the thermalright one ?
and lastly they both work for the 9800x3d cpu right ???

Both do the same thing, maybe the foam adds a bit of rigidity but who knows wouldn't worry about it.

As long as Both are made for AM5 they will work with the 9800x3d.

Thanks yeah the foam is mainly goes under the frame between the gaps to stop thermal paste from getting between the ihs and under the cpu lol easier to clean ect so i will get that also ...

I have the Thermalright one and it works a treat. You don't need the foam unless you are using a particularly runny thermal paste.
