Awesome video, I was wondering if there was a special way of removing these soldered IHS. I have removed 2 so far but those was not the soldered CPU's and was held with only silicon gasket like material. Even then it took a decent amount of force, I could only imagine how much more force it takes to remove it with soldered IHS. I was under the assumption that you needed to heat it up before removal. I am kind of surprised that with it being soldered that you can force it off like that with no damage done to the chip.
@@hardwarelens8040 Shit when I done mine with just the epoxy holding it on instead of epoxy and solder, it seemed like it took wayyyy to much force lol. But I had confidence that it would work. The one I delidded was the elderly 3770k, replaced the SHIT TIM with liquid metal as well as a custom copper IHS. And man did that help with temps. Right now running 5ghz stable and temps don't go above 70c. With 1.30vcore, which im still lowering and trying to find the sweet spot. Have ran it at 4.8 most its lifetime with 1.20ish vcore.
@@hardwarelens8040 But here shortly once I can score a rtx3080 or wait for a Super or TI version with more ram. I am going to upgrade my whole system. But still torn between Intel and AMD, specially with intels soon to be released 5k series. With remarks of it maybe even besting the 10900k at FPS gaming. But if Intel I will for sure be delidding and buying another custom copper IHS "even tho the custom copper IHS doesn't help much with temps, might be flatter tho than the always convex IHS that intel seems to use" from rockitcool. Still have my delidder so im good on that aspect. But I am sure as hell getting antsy, I have had this PC for almost 8 years.
Great video and guide! I will check out your other video to see the results.
do you need the bracket or can you just put the delidded cpu back into the socket?

It takes a ton of force! Its scary but it does work as per the video.

Chucked a lot my busted Pentium 4 from 2004, i threw it a lot in my garage and broke the IHS off
What is advantage soldier IHS ?
