**DER8AUER DELID-DIE-MATE PRICE DROP**

I don't think anyone is doubting it's quality or worth when doing multiple chips. It's just a lot to pay for a one off.

Looking forward to binned chips.
 
I might pick one up anyway... it was rather scary hitting my 3770k with a hammer and piece of wood, took me a few times to get it right too. I have a few haswell and ivy chips knocking around I've been considering delidding, so I might actually get my monies worth.

Gonna have to be next year though, I'm potless at the moment :(
 
I'm not sure that anything can be over-engineered when you are talking about applying pressure to a £370 chip with a potentially fragile PCB...
 
you mess up on 1 i7 or i5 cpu though and you are stuffed. unless you delid pentiums i say its worth it. you can sell in on the mm for £10 less or you could keep it for next time Intel use crap paste :D

you have to be pretty stupid to mess it up.

I did it with an i5 no probs.

Hmm it's a bit like gold plating a door stop :p It doesn't do anything to the function of the thing, just makes it more expensive.
