7700k delid with CLU - should I redo it?

You mean my removing the HSF shouldn't mess up the die to IHS bond?

7700k delid with CLU - should I redo it?

My thoughts exactly. If caution is taken not to rip the heatsink right out but first twist and move it in order to break the adhesion force between it and IHS, it should be fine. In theory at least. However, the layer of liquid metal between the die and IHS is so thin that who knows how it could...

7700k delid with CLU - should I redo it?

Thanks for the picture. Your result really is similar to what achieved! Have you remounted the heatsink in the past months, after you delidded the 7700K? I wonder if it is ok to do without need to repeat the delid.

7700k delid with CLU - should I redo it?

Guys, you have been incredibly helpful. I guess I will leave it be. Now I only wonder if it is possible to reinstall/change waterblock atop the CPU without the need to redo the delidding procedure or maybe somehow the CLU will get disturbed and loose its tight bond? I have a regular TIM between...

7700k delid with CLU - should I redo it?

bump. Whatcha think? Could this be because I tightened the clamping screw during relidding too much, and upon de-clamping the relidded CPU, the CLU was somehow disturbed?

7700k delid with CLU - should I redo it?

Heh, that's why I just waited patiently a couple of months for the delid tool to be restocked :p The thought of razors anywhere near the cpu.. brrr Here's sth you guys may find interesting: Yesterday I decided to stress test it once again, but this time I left Prime95 running longer. After 15...

I am familiar with that monster thread. A true gem of empirical approach to the subject of TIM. As far as I remember, the IHS of his 3770k rested directly on the die after removing excess glue, with a gap now appearing between IHS and substrate instead.

7700k delid with CLU - should I redo it?

Ok guys, things went slightly off topic, I guess to each his own when it comes to choosing a brand, ppl have their reasons. I was unlucky enough to get a really hot-running chip, so any overclock was out of question. Am I pissed at Intel? - yes, but what can I do now, and delid was the only...

Thanks for your input. Well, the principle is basically the same with AMD CPUs I guess. Are saying that more CLU is better? What did you do wrong the first time? Sorry i didn't get it, most certainly because I'm not a native English speaker heh.

7700k delid with CLU - should I redo it?

Thx aigomorla, that's good to hear. One more thing: I just realized I didn't protect the row of tiny contacts near the corner of the die with varnish or otherwise. Can this be an issue?

7700k delid with CLU - should I redo it?

Hi everyone, This is my first post here, but I have been reading the forum for a long time. I have delidded my 7700k (with Rockit 88-super easy) due to unacceptable temps even after changing to kraken x61 AIO. Overall improvement I gained is 17C on load (Prime 95 v26.6, small fft, stock voltage...
