Anyone have a delidding tool I can borrow for a donation to the Charity of their choice.

You won't, I have faith.

It's arrived.

That what's I call a quick delivery. Bought from Houston and arrived less than 48 hours later .

Time for some fun this evening.

Awahwah · 14 Jun 2018 at 12:35

Ha, make that challenge to RM and they'd fall flat on their face.

Awahwah · 14 Jun 2018 at 21:33

Awesome

Pooh · 15 Jun 2018 at 00:16

good luck - just take your time and watch a few vids on YouTube

Hey guys, I'm super new to this place as I was looking for the Delid-Die-Mate 2 to borrow specifically. Funny thing is that they were for £29 on overclockers (out of stock now) and now the cheapest option is on ebay for £55... which is quite sad. I would be more than happy to pay for shipping (both directions) and donate as well. Please, let me know if it would be possible. I'm not in a hurry or anything as I am still looking for a silicone adhesive, but I got the Termal Grizzly LM already. Many thanks, Ed.

What type of CPU do you have as different socket types need differing delidders

Is that the Rocket 88 one? I am just about to order one of each from them but need them kinda quick.

Pooh · 15 Jun 2018 at 09:46

It's the Rocket 99 for socket LGA 2066. Make sure you get the right one for your CPU

Select 2 day shipping Fedex

Hey Pooh, thanks for your reply. I have 7700k and it should be fine I guess from all the reviews I've seen. It was really hot for past few weeks, which is not typical for Northern Ireland and I saw my temps going up to 77c while playing PUBG. It's nothing serious yet, but I really don't like such a high temperature with AIO cooler and a case with really good airflow.

Think you should be fine with that CPU. Recent high ambient temps won't help much. My delid tool won't fit your CPU anyhow. its for a 2066 socket and yours is 1151

X5MS · 16 Jun 2018 at 02:14

Ahh, right. Looks like I will need to ask Awahwah if he could help me out. But then again I'm not in a hurry or anything, but also not willing to pay £50 for 1 time use, even if I could resell it. Than you Pooh!

If you've got the balls, use a (decent, metal) vice. I'm an engineer so that's my comfort zone, and the 3D printed delid tool failed. Took me seconds in a dinky little 2" vice.

Dude, I like your suggestion, but I think it's a bit too extreme for me and I have no vice. haha

@Awahwah Thank you so much dude. Sure and I think we can keep you in loop all the time, nothing to hide and better to keep tracking these things.
