** der8auer CPU Tools and Accessories **

[rjk]

Hi Guys

Today we are proud to announce the exclusive launch of the der8auer and der8auer Delid-Die-Mate and der8auer Haswell OC frame.





der8auer Delid-Die-Mate @ £62.99 inc VAT

Designed and developed by top overclocker 'der8auer', the der8auer Delid-Die-Mate is the ultimate tool for safely removing the Integrated Heat Sink or IHS from a CPU.

The Vice method has been the preferred method for CPU lid removal since the introduction of thermal paste into Intel CPU die contacts. With the advent of Skylake CPUs, many users have found that performance gains were huge when delidding the CPU and either reapplying a performance thermal interface material or running the CPU with the cooler directly on the die.

The problem with the newer style Skylake CPUs is that the PCB is so thin that you run the risk of damaging your expensive CPU by attempting to remove the IHS.

Many enthusiasts have started using razorblades to remove the lid of their CPU but this has a lot of dangers of its own. After spending time and money finding a top performing CPU, world class overclockers cannot afford to risk damaging a record breaking CPU by removing the IHS.

The der8auer Delid-Die-Mate simplifies this process and removes all risk of damaging your CPU.
The tool is two precision milled blocks that clamp together around the CPU with even force distribution that locks the CPU in place safely. By turning the screw on the back of the device, the lid of the CPU is pushed steadily away from the PCB with no risk of damage to your expensive performance CPU.

The der8auer Delid-Die-Mate has indicators for Skylake, Ivy Bridge, Haswell and Devils Canyon CPU types.

Only £62.99 inc VAT.

der8auer Haswell OC frame @ £27.95 inc VAT

Roman "der8auer" Hartung is a young mechatronics student, hardware enthusiast and professional overclocker from Germany.

Despite his relatively young age for many years in the extreme overclocking scene active and has already established numerous pioneering world records at this time.


The der8auer Haswell OC frame clamps a delidded CPU in place on the motherboard and also makes the socket surround level with the surface of the die to distribute force evenly and protect your performance CPU

funny you mention that

de8auer did one himself

edit - beaten to it by Smrtka the keeno!

 

[rjk]

Removes all risk? hmmm...

correct. the way this works means that there is no way that the cpu can be damaged by removing the lid.

 

[rjk]

Aww man, i was hoping they was going to be cheaper than this. £30 ish quid or something.
£40 tops but up above £60 is just not what i wana pay.

you need to remember a few things here.

First of all, these are manufactured in very small quantities. de8auer has these produced himself and the cost to manufacture due to the specialist/niche nature of this is very high.

Whilst this seems like a huge amount of money to some, considering it removes all risk compared to every alternative delidding method it is a relatively small price to pay.

For someone looking to delid one CPU, sure, its a lot.
but for people who bench and buy loads of chips, you dont want to run the risk of killing a cherry picked cpu and £60 is nothing when it takes that risk away.

in the grand scheme of things, £60 is a small amount of money compared to most stuff we have for sale.

no as an intel master partner we are not allowed to offer modified processors at retail.

if an end user does this then we have no control over it.

 

[rjk]

If I popped into OcUK would you delid my chip for a tenner?

no as an intel master partner we are not allowed to offer modified processors at retail.

 

[rjk]

Not sure whether OCUK would like the idea of one being shared around the forum.........

I really don't care in honesty.

We are a business, but we are a community too.

If you want to grab one and arrange for people to borrow it then we would encourage it for established members.

What will not be allowed is any trading outside the MM or group buys of a product.

other than that, go wild. you have my blessing.

 

[rjk]

I mean one I already own, or can't you do that either? You'd effectively just be offering the use of the tool.

we are not able to offer a service that involves permanent physical alterations to an intel processor as part of our partnership agreement.

I see Caseking has some in stock now, how many are OCUK getting?, has he made more than the initial first twenty?.

our stock will be here in 7-10 days

What happened to 80 euros for 20 pieces like der8auer said

I dont know where he has said that.

80euros for 20pcs is 4euros/pcs

looking at our cost price, they are about as far from 4 euros as you can reasonably get. so im not sure what thats about.

yeah?

he is saying that the price will be about 80 euros based on a production run of 20 units...

which is exactly what he did but managed to get the price lower.

coincidentally I am speaking to my colleague at Caseking who told me to check the stock and it has all gone.

the way to look at it is this:

Can you afford to replace a £350+ if you **** up the delidding process?

Can you afford £60 in addition to your £350+ CPU to guarantee you wont **** up the delidding process?

The problem is that you aren't actually guaranteeing it, there's a specific disclaimer in the first post about it.

Where?

*** Important warning! *** The removal of the CPU heatspreader at your own risk and causes the complete loss of warranty and guarantee from the manufacturer.


I believe Omar was refering to the above quote.

firstly, that disclaimer is in the product description for the haswell OC frame. a totally seperate product to the delidding tool.

secondly, of course you are going to void the warranty of your cpu by delidding it. that goes without saying, so acting surprised by this information is really very silly.

thirdly, the issue is that Omar said that we aren't actually guaranteeing it to work, referring to a totally unrelated disclaimer about warranty in the OP.
A warning about removing the IHS does not have a single thing to do with this product being guaranteed to work.

I really wish people would read the posts and not just make up what they think I've posted. The delid mate does work, if used correctly, then it is guaranteed to work and not damage anything.

Delidding your CPU will void the warranty. This is a fact and has nothing to do with OcUK Guaranteeing this product will not damage your CPU if used correctly.

thermal grizzly kryo/hydro if using direct contact to the die

if replacing the ihs, i have personally used liquid metal with a lot of success.

 

[rjk]

they are on order, not had an eta on the batch for us yet though.

we have a bunch more on the way. these things sell out quick so pre order is highly recommended
