AMD draw a processor with a frame for flow cooling, but produce it with a lid.

Your question is not clear.

Please provide more information and detail about what you are planning or attempting to do.

Are you able to take and post photographs?

Photographs and screenshots can be posted here via imgur (www.imgur.com > green "New post" icon).

My concern being that the marketing images are being confused with installation/use instructions.
 
The rendered CPU (above) is likely one that would soldered into a laptop's or one of the micro-mini-PC's motherboard socket. It would not be removable once installed.

Desktop CPUs, as others have pointed out, mount differently.

What is the point of this concern?

The frame around the chip is needed to install the processor in the socket.

That's an Intel CPU. Desktop Ryzen are held on all sides and corners. Ryzen H suffix CPUs are meant for portable devices, soldered to MB and likely direct die cooling without IHS. Still don't see what it has to do with with artist's rendered picture of possible innards. That's like comparing comics to photos.
