Kaby lake, sky lake, coffee lake - same shape IHS?

[3t3P]

Considering a delid now on my 8600k per other thread I made on 8600k Vs 9700k.

I'm finding it hard to prove if the actual IHS size and shape is the same across all of these processors as per thread title.

Some delid tools like the Dr Delid specifically say kaby/skylake compatible with no mention of coffeelake.

Anyone have the answer?

Cheers

Pretty sure they're all the same size. I'm selling a Rockit 88 delidding tool, on the members market, that supports all three

Here's their webpage that states it's compatibile. https://rockitcool.myshopify.com/co...lid-relid-kit-for-i7-8700k/products/rockit-88

Skylake has a different IHS shape to U0 (Coffee) and B0 (Kaby) CPUs (these 2 are the same). From what I've seen online, P0 and R0 (Coffee refresh) have a different IHS and some(all?) are soldered.
