As I was scraping it off with a Utility Knife Blade, visually it seemed like I was cutting into the Die that is on top of the CPU, but that’s not what it was, it was the Solder that made it look that way. The Vice Only method was a piece of cake.įull disclosure, right after Deliding the fist CPU, I was in a terrified moment for a while because, especially on the first CPU there was a ton of Solder that had to be removed. Then took it out, took it back 1/4 turn (Original Starting Location) applied pressure, a little at a time until I started to see the IHS slide on top of the CPU, then took it out of the Vice and slid it by hand the rest of the way off. Took the CPU/IHS out of the vice, turned it 1/4, then repeated the previous steps. I barely cut into each corner.I applied pressure in the vice, let it set for a minute, then applied a little more pressure, let it set for a minute. I took an exacto blade and cut into the corner sections of the IHS where they are Siliconed to the CPU. I personally took it one step further, but in hindsight, it was not necessary. Step 1 - Use the Vice Method (NO HAMMER). It is so insanely easy, its almost criminal that people who are packaging DeLided CPU’s with the Thermal Past, Thumb Drive, and cleaner, then marking it up over 300.00 over buying the parts separately and DeLiding the CPU it yourself. First let me say this….I am confident that most people who say not to attempt to DeLid Soldered CPU’s are simply regurgitating other peoples fears and likely have no first hand experience.
