Thermal Grizzly Ryzen 7000 Delid-Die-Mate

I titled this Delid made easy. But I was scared as can be deliding my 7950x3d all I could think was £700 down the drain if this don't go to plan. But it was a breeze. Took a bit longer than expected and the cleaning was a pain but all turned out great. Now using there micro direct die cooler on my custom loop and couldn't ask for a better result .Nice one Thermal Grizzly

Utilisé pour delid un 9800x3d, le tool est de bonne qualité, le procédé relativement safe , il m'aura fallu déplacer l'ihs de droite à gauche pas moins de 25 fois avant que la soudure de cède.

Sehr hochwertig verarbeitet - Top!

Got this in, still waiting on the TG AM5 heatspreader which should arrive tomorrow so I cannot speak to temps yet but...Device is very well machined and ready to delid right out of the box. I popped in my $700 CPU and noticed a few things different than my previous 14700K and 14900K delids. The ease of which the 9950X3D comes apart is amazing, the intel chips snapped apart. This was very drama free and it really just comes down to moving back and forth about 30 times (for me, some people have to do it 100's) until the red block just slid around on its own. It took about 8 minutes or so with hand cranking on the allen wrench, I did not use a drill. Once the red piece freely moved I knew the IHS and die's were separated fully. Pulled the unit apart and yep, this was delidded without cracks/breaks/drama. It did not snap apart, make any noise, this indium solder is very soft.I cleaned up the cpu with maybe 6 runs of rubbing in DC2 Pro liquid metal, then switched to flitz polishing compound until the dies were all mirror like. I did the same for the IHS but the indium was very thick on the IHS side. I eventually just used a small bamboo stick from another delid kit I had and just pushed off the solder then cleaned it up with the flitz.Right now the cpu is working, I am using it to type this review. I just have polar therm x10 on the die and on the IHS side until I get the heatspreader in. Temps basically the same but I did set the cpu to 65w eco mode just incase.This is definitely more clean up work than raptor lakes since you deal with 2 cores and the memory/io die but it is 100% compatible with ryzen 9000 and the X3d variants.

Great device! Very solid build quality. Delids very well.And killed my CPU, too.
