I'm sure I have delid tutorial videos stored somewhere, need to find them. More preparation the better.
Are there any other advantages to delidding other than really nice temps and high clock speeds?
I'm pretty sure delidding will be necessary once I think about 5Ghz+. At 4.9Ghz I usually peak the CPU package at 70C and average 60C under load which is not bad with my trusty Corsair H110i water cooler. I actually thought that I would need to delid the 8700K as soon as I brought it but was surprised to find it quite manageable. Dellided temps will be laughable. Anyway time to play some AC Odyssey (at 5Ghz of course) Catcha.
