Posted October 28, 20186 yr Looking to sell my 7960X as haven't done much with it and would like to free up some money in it It was delid, I have however resealed it with Liquid Metal, however a couple of the cores are really hot still, not sure why exactly, and I don't have a delid tool to delid it again so you may need one if your planning to OC this See update lower down! I also have a BartX copper IHS for this which I will include, it does have Liquid Metal stained on the inside though this shouldn't affect performance of it Asking price is £1000 £950 £925 £875 £850 including shipping PayPal gift or buyer pays fees Some OC results I got on Watercooling with Liquid Metal http://hwbot.org/submission/3868697_matt26lfc_cinebench___r15_core_i9_7960x_4288_cb (Water and delid with LM) http://hwbot.org/submission/3864473_matt26lfc_cinebench___r11.5_core_i9_7960x_43.53_points (Water but wasn't delid at this time) http://hwbot.org/submission/3864485_matt26lfc_hwbot_x265_benchmark___4k_core_i9_7960x_27.88_fps (Water but wasn't delid at this time) Edited November 7, 20186 yr by Matt26LFC

November 6, 20186 yr Author Was able to delid the chip again using razor blade, used grizzly this time and temps are improved! Turns out I hadn't tightened down the waterblock enough. Haven't resealed it this time so chip will now be sold delid

November 6, 20186 yr Author Haha Was a little worrying doing it, cut through the four corners then just used finger strength to pull the chip open Cheers
November 8, 20186 yr Hmm...Tempted. I'm in the USA so I'm doing some research on Customs. Might be duty free.
