I would not do this on an I9 CPU.

Why not? Many of the delid tools are meant for the 2066 cpus.

$1400 -v- $340 mostly

Yeah spot on, that's a load of money for just a CPU, pretty insane if you ask me, you could put that to better parts instead of more "Cores". 

I have the Best Parts, maybe you can tell us what Better Parts you are referring to?
We all use our "Cores" for what we need them for and when we need them.
We all use our Computers for what we Build (Assemble) them for.
Some want More Cores and Some Want More Graphics Cards and so on.

"Better" and "Best" parts are down to anyones interpretation, not saying you don't, just my twocents of what a user could do instead of getting a super CPU.  Not sure if you missread my post but I was agreeing with you about deliding a $1400 CPU is probably not worth considering you loose your waranty.

A 7980xe benefits very well from a delid. If you are scared of making your cpu better and then using a little rtv sealant to keep the IHS in place, then don’t delid. Cost of the part means nothing when you are looking for a benefit. The x299 cpu’s All use thermal paste rather than solder, and that is a fault of Intel. I wouldn’t delid an x99 cpu because it is soldered and there would be no benefit. However, all x299 cpus benefit just like A $450 cpu does.

No it wouldn’t, I paid the $50 on the 5960 and they say that as long as the serial number isn’t affected, you can still warranty. Again, if you reattach the ihs with Black RTV sealant, there is no way to know that a delid was done.

P.S.

Intel, “did you overclock your CPU?”

Me, “yes”

Intel, “your warranty is void then...”

Me, *hang up, call back and gets a new tech on the phone*

Intel, “did you overclock the cpu?”

Me, “ no, I paid over $1000 for an unlocked cpu, why would I risk it?”

Intel, “cool, send it back, we will replace it.....”

Never tell intel you overclocked or delidded... but don’t break the cpu either. The flat black RTV looks exactly like the stock seal, so you can replace the sealant and it looks stock.

Don’t send it back with the IHS sitting in the box either... that would just give it all away. Take the time to line it up and make it look stock.

Would not want to overclock 7980XE without delid. Or even use stock.  Pulls 600W+ from wall overclocked.

Delid Die Mate 2

yup. this is the only tool I would ever use to delid a proc. ive done 2 7700k chips with it using cool lab liquid metal. its cheap,simple to use and foolproof. just youtube some videos on it
