Cross Country Rockit Delid Tool Extravaganza

So since I don't plan on delidding anything for a while and feel sorry for all those overheating Kaby's with hampered performance due to Intel's pigeon poop paste I want to give people the opportunity to pop the top off their CPU's with no casualties. So this is how it works. I will ship the tool out to the first person on the list and afterwards each person will be responsible for sending it to the next person. The last person on the list will be responsible for sending it back to me. I'll also be including the RTV silcone in case you choose to relid. Be advised that this tool can also be used to delid Ivy, Haswell, Devil's Canyon, and Skylake. Please be advised that I am only including the relidder tool for the 1150/1151 sockets. 1155's utilize a different tool for relidding.

Requirements

  • Minimum Rep: 35
  • Member for at least a year
  • US48 Only
I will leave this open to 20 members. Once the queue is filled I'll ship it out to the first person on the list.


Members should use the tool and have it shipped to the next person by two to three days of receiving it. Please send me a PM once you ship it to the next person so that I can track progress. Also, as I am doing this as a favor to the community, I expect to receive the tool back in the same condition it initially went out in (perfect condition and no missing parts!). If there's anything missing when you receive it please let me know ASAP.

Edit: just re-read. I don't plan on using it right away so probably best I'm not first to get it.

If there's room, id love to be added to the list. Was just thinking of popping my 3770k open! Any specific thermal paste recommended to put under the lid?

Edit: Should have just had you bundle it in with our recent sale.

I'll add you to the list.

Since there's not many entrants (none but you lol) I might just ship it out sooner than expected.

I have three chips waiting to be delidded ;(
I can make an exception for you but you would probably be placed at the end of the list and would have to pay shipping your way from the person which needs to send it to you as well as shipping it back to me.

Update:

Looks like I'll ship it to the first person on the list next week Monday. Wanted to start today but my brother has decided to pop the top off of his chip this weekend.

Put me on the list. I get reasonable Temps on my i7 4790 locked CPU, but I'd like to see if I can get it down more and just because I can. I've got a replacement case for my sig rig so if I fail I fail.

Awesomesauce.

Thankfully I get paid weekly so I will delid on a Monday or Tuesday and ship out by Friday the same week. Then if I don't yet have CLU, no worries I can sit on my delidded chip and submit the results for inclusion. May delid my client's 4790k if his Temps are higher than I like. He lives in a trailer with poor air circulation.

Thank you so much for the ability to use the tool, makes it so nice to decide whether I will purchase for future use on other Intel chips for myself and future clientelle.

Got my delid on my 3770k finished last night. Dropped load temps by 18c!

It is now time to pass this lovely tool on to the next in line. Please PM me your address and I'll mail it out, ASAP!

Good to hear you got the top popped off with no issues. I remember delidding my 3770K with a razor blade.

The only issue I ran in to..and I may have been doing it wrong, but I could not get the lid itself to mount back on with using the white brackets for lining it up. The bracket would just not let the lid go down, even when twisting the center screw. I watched some videos on it, and people were doing exactly what I was doing, without an issue. I just had to eyeball it, at that point :/
