Delids done for the Following members.

@TombstonE - 4790k 34C drop under Full load for 10 mins on OCCT at 4.6ghz stock vs the Delid on a hyper 212 Cooler

@WAZAR - 4790k 26C drop under Full load for 10 mins on OCCT at 4.6ghz stock vs the Delid on a hyper 212 Cooler

@RamboFR05TY - 4790K that was predelided but would not run stable over 4.5ghz now running at 4.7ghz stable.
was blue Screening at 4.6 Ghz no matter the voltage. Once opened it was determined that the previous delid had damaged
one of the SMDs and liquid metal was found all over the place as no insulation was put over the SMDs. Happily i was able to clean all the liquid metal off and sealed the SMDs off although the one that had fallen off could not be replaced. no performance loss was noted as the chip performed much the same as the two units above. Temps dropped from 95 spikes to nothing over 70C. Previous deltas between cores was anything from 16c to 30c. deltas reduced to 3 to 5c of one another.



@mopkop - 4690K User to determine before and after results as there was no testing done on my side.
 

Thanks for the link. I am aware thst it can be done but I cannot justify the risk with a soldiered Tim. If I'm not prepared to do it on my. Own ryzen chip how can I expect other users to feel comfortable with me doing it to theirs. If I can get my hands on a couple dead ryzen chips and mess around with them then I'll happily give it a go💪🏻💪🏻
 
Picking my chip up today - will give my full review on the service but in short I don't know whether I enjoyed the banter, insight, or actual service more because it was an all round great experience. @G3t Wr3k3d is such a genuine guy with fantastic skills. 10/10 worth it!
 
Full review time:

On Monday I bought a chip from a carbie and had it sent to @G3t Wr3k3d's office. Pre-testing was done by him to confirm the chip was 100% in working condition and to confirm that I wanted to go ahead with it. I was provided with screenshots of HWInfo for a previous 4790K chip he delidded to give me an idea of how it improved and I was blown away. Throughout all this, we're chatting shit and having a good laugh which I really appreciated as it shows a personality you can trust behind a forum name. I hadn't even met the bloke.

Every single flippen step of this process was just amazing, he sent me pictures describing every single thing he does and why he does it, so I fully understand how delidding, cleaning, repasting and sealing works. I saw my chip's toothpaste like TIM be cleaned off and shiny new liquid metal being applied. I even learnt some things I think I could use elsewhere when working with electronics in the future.

The chip cured overnight, and after work the next day he began post-testing the chip and all was well, a few meaty stress tests later and the improvement was very clear, and I was super impressed by the quality of his service. I went to pick the chip up the next morning from his offices and chucked it into my system.

(If I forgot to mention any parts above I'm soz it's a lot to write)

He also gave me a lot of tips on OCing, some guidance on where to start and now I can show ya'll what we got going:

That is quality ladies and gents. I 100% recommend you send your chips to @G3t Wr3k3d for a full house treatment.

I've got a i7 4790K that I don't intend to overclock, but I am interested in seeing cooler temperatures on.

Currently it get to around 80 Deg after a good long gaming session of Destiny 2, and I was wondering if it would be worth a delid, liquid metal and reseal (or not reseal and get even better temps on)

My major problem is that I would need to ship you the chip via courier, have you test it in it's current state, crack it, metal it, and reseal (or not. Still on the hedge about this part).

Question: What is the likelihood of the liquid metal moving off when shipping it back, as I know courier companies don't give a rats ass about the BIG RED LABEL ON THE SIDE THAT SAYS THIS WAY UP AND EXTREMELY FRAGILE.

Main concern is the jottling and vibration of transport would cause the liquid metal to separate/dislodge between the IHS and the chip, and end up frying the CPU the moment I plug it into the board. Surface tension is only so strong.

I live a good 6 hours from JHB, so traveling there for the service is out of the question.

None to zero. The liquid metal essentially cures/ dries. So the chances of it moving is equal to someone driving close enough to the sun to make it turn liquid form again.

Edit: It will only become malleable again once you put it under stress in your/ a motherboard

I do not think you are correct in this statement bud.
liquid metal stays liquid i have opened CPUs that have been delided Years before and the metal is still fluid.
Liquid metal has a tendency of sticking to itself like oil does in water. so while yes its unlikely that it'll dislodge from between the DIE and IHS it still remains fluid.
 
Just wanted to return and say thank you to @G3t Wr3k3d for his excellent service and assisting in the post service once I got my CPU's back from delidding and application of liquid metal. Would really recommend the guy as his service and communication was top notch!
 
Hey. Still doing this? I have a 4790K under a Kraken X62 that I want to get the most out of.
Where are you?
 
Thank you again! My temps dropped a lot! I was running 90+ degrees with a 5ghz OC on 8700k. After Delid its now max on 70-71 on the hottest core only. All others are lower.

The CPU is very clean as well. Damn Well Service I must say. Kept me in the loop constantly.
 
Warranty on cpu is up so I'm going to be in contact soon for some delidding love.

you have any photos of the cpu and IHS before and after? Would be very curious to see how neat the resealing is ( im unfortunately a little OCD)

Have a 4790k currently at 4.8ghz, 1.35v aida 12hrs stable but have one core that is up to 20c cooler than the others under load (after multiple reseats)..seems to indicate a few contact issues under the ihs i'm itching to sort out.

Do you do lapping as well?

Hi Enigma.

Please pop me a PM and we can get number exchanged and sort our pics.
 
I originally had an issue with my 4790k where 3 of my 4 cores would peak between 80~85c and the 4th would be 20c cooler when running under load. At the same voltage, this was substantially hotter than my 4770k that never went over 70k at load.

Even though i was still stable at 4.8ghz and 1.325v i thought i would get G3t Wr3k3d to delid the cpu and see if we could even out the temps a bit.

just got the cpu back today and given it a quick test..

the highest temperature i now have is 55~65c under load which is a full 20c cooler than previously recorded. My 4th core is now within 5c of the other 3 cores as well (These temps were recorded using the Aida64 cpu stability test for 4hrs)

While i havent tested if i can push the cpu further to 4.9~5ghz now yet, i can confirm that it is now able to stay stable at 4.8ghz at less voltage than before (1.28v now vs 1.325v before)

overall, was a very successful and worthwhile 'upgrade', thanks a lot G3t Wr3k3d (y)
 
Are you able to delid Ryzen APUs?
