dling Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 Have any of you guys used the cheap delidding tools from ebay? Thaey sure are a lot less expensive. I see theres not a reliddend with them also. How important is that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braegnok Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) The Rockit 88 delid & relid kit only costs $40,.. and it's not going to damage your chip. Edited September 9, 2018 by Braegnok Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dling Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 Thats what I was worried about. I was think that a 3d printed delidding tool may not be the best idea. I also agree, a dead cpu is a cool cpu. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braegnok Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 Since I bought the Rockit tools 1151 & 2066 socket kits,.. I offered delid service at my shop for $50 and have done a few dozen chips now,.. most folks buying new custom build rig add the delid service.

dling Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) What do you think about using super glue gel on the corners of the lid to reattach it to the processor ? BTW took ur advice and ordered the proper tool along with the liquid metal. Edited August 30, 2018 by dling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braegnok Posted August 30, 2018 Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) Just a "small" drop of the Gel Super Glue in each corner is the way to go,.. it's dry and ready to install in 2-hours. First chip I used the liquid super glue and it runs all over everything if your not vary careful,.. use the gel. And also do a test drop on a paper towel before hand,.. also do a test drop of the LM before pushing plunger over die, sometimes the syringe plunger won't push, and when you push a little harder it will shoot a huge blast of LM all over everything.

dling Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 So here the pics of my deligging from today. It started out so well then Im not sure but I may have screwed it up. I realized that I did not have the relidding cover all the way pushed on. It tool a bit of pressure, more then I expected. But of corse I had already added the glue. So I remover the lid for a second time and then the liquid metal had ran over the side of the cpu. I used tape to clean it up . But the super glue made a bit of a mess and may have caused a bit of a buildup .anyways it all together and running. I got in such to do this that I had for gotten to do some before temp test so Idont what it was reading .I only have after temps.
