Haswell delidding: -30°C and +100MHz on air

[Atlas Rush]

Hi guys, bringing up to you something interesting: this morning I delidded my 4770k, I was FKIN afraid but yea, I made it out!

 

I made a video that I'll upload tonight since connection is only available at that hour of the day. Meanwhile, I gained something like 30°C (precisely 27-28°C), passing from 95+°C with heavy stress test @ 5.0GHz to barely 70°C. I just had a quick session for Linx, just to see temperatures @ 4.5GHz, and that's what I got...

 

As soon as the video (italian language) is up, I'll post it here if someone is interested. However I succeeded in benchmarking with the CPU @ 4.9GHz with temperatures up to 71-72°C with 3Ds Before delidding, I only could bench @4.8GHz and I had to wait for the "cooler" hours of the day.

 

Eventually, I used Liquid Pro between IHS and die, while I used GC-Extreme between IHS and waterblock (running on a H100i atm).

 

BYE!

Here it goes the video

very good shepeeu,u should test it under cold not running lynx

[Atlas Rush]

as soon as possible bro, here's not easy to bench under LN2, humidity is high and now (17:39) it's 29°C inside the house

[Alex@ro]

Oh,if cold is coming then good.Awaiting your resuls.Make sure to replace liquid pro between die and ihs with gelic gc extreme,liquid not good for sub-zero

[Atlas Rush]

With GC-Extreme under the IHS, I get +5 +8°C on the core, and since this is a "Daily" CPU mostly, I don't know what I'll put inside

What were you using to cut through the glue? Some kind of long flexible razor blade?

[Atlas Rush]

Correct, a clay blade, it's used to model clay shapes before it becomes solid
