Hey Folks,

 

I was given the opportunity to test this tool and received it few days ago. Now the concept is clearly not new but what can make a difference is the execution and the price/availability.

 

Nowdays delidding is clearly mandatory for anyone looking to squeeze the last drops of performance from their CPU . The RocketCool Delidder will do this perfectly safe and without worrying of damaging your CPU.

 

First of all the tool and accesory:

 

 

 

 

 

Using the tool is extremely easy and bulletproof .

 

Simply put the CPU in it's designed part ,you also have a mark for the right corner,i obviously missed it but it worked perfectly even like this.

 

 

Then we arrange the tool by tightening with bare hand the 3 screws,then it will look like this:

 

 

Use the given tool and rotate clockwise till the sign reaches the other end :

 

 

Enjoy the result:

 

 

I used this tool to delid a few Skylake's so far and it worked perfectly.The quality it's very good and the IHS will never know what hit it

 

 

Here is also a video made by James which should be more hintful:

At a price of 34.88$ + shipping . International shipping is also possible and according to James the price with shipping included should be around 50$ .

 

* The purpose of this topic is to give more exposure to a great product and all the credit goes to it's creator James. I do not own or earn anything from this and also do not know anything about copyright issues with Roman's tool . My opinion is that anything that works good and has a good price is extremely welcome to overclocking community .

oh lawd. Notsureifsrs

Thx for sharing Alex!

 

I have 2 questions:

1. CPU compability with Haswell/DC/Ivy Bridge?

2. Can it be used to reglue IHS in stock position?

 

The tools is looking good and the price is attractive

1. Yes it is compatible with LGA 1155, 1150 and 1151

2. No. I know he is working on a separate tool for this purpose.

... what can make a difference is the execution and the price/availability (...) My opinion is that anything that works good and has a good price is extremely welcome to overclocking community.

 

I would argue - if shipping is 50$, maybe it's a deal for US guys, but for 85 shipped, I'd rather pay extra few euro and have stuff from Roman/caseking in less than a week than wait for weeks for delivery. Anyway, multiple sources are good thing

I meant close to 50$ total payment for tool+shipping

Then it's more affordable

Deja vu........

Where's the innovation? From what I can tell it's an identical copy of Roman's tool?

No way man, it's got rounded corners!

and it does start with R, come on guys D and R are like 14 letters apart in the alphabet, that's a huge difference.

Thanks for sharing though!

This was no sales promotion but whatever you decide bo$$ .

Is it build from aluminium of or some sort of Perspex/Polycarbonaat thingy ?

Body is pom,the ihs moving tool is metal

I backed it on kickstarter. Its in production they stated. As for shipping to europe indeed 40 euros on top of sales price..

Looking forward to trying it though.

 

Good info Alex!

I ordered one a week or so ago, was just over 50 dollars shipped to the Netherlands. This will make it so much easier to delid CPU's.

Has anyone received it? I'm still waiting for mine.

Mine arrived over the weekend, though I haven't taken it out of the package yet.

Received this tool today,works great....cheap $30 and postage from when I bought it to receiving it was like 5 working days to Australia
