Some questions though, since you've already done it:ġ.
I've got all the tools and parts now and am just waiting till I work up the nerve to do this to my 7700K. The results are amazing even when you do a mediocre job at it, so anyone suffering from high temps with Intel CPUs I do encourage to try it if you have a minimal knowledge of how to install a CPU. Use the Arctic silver kit #1 liquid and your fingernails. Just in case you go for it, do not use any sharp tools around the CPU to remove the old silicone. Here are the instructions from Rockit's website. The process takes about an hour and the results are immediate. You can use Superglue instead of silicone, so this step is optional. J-B Weld 31314 Red High Temperature RTV Silicone to Seal the CPU (make sure to leave a small unsealed part for thermal expansion).
Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut for the INSIDE of the CPU.Arctic Silver kit to clean the paste and to reapply paste OUTSIDE the CPU.The process is pretty straightforward, I used the following items: 89C (and some spikes above that too) while gaming.Just to clarify because the name is a bit misleading, delidding consists on removing the metal cap that covers the CPU, cleaning the stock thermal paste, applying a better one, and re-installing the metal cap again. I figured i would share my experience delidding the CPU just in case anyone was interested in doing it too. I've been experiencing some absurd temperatures in my CPU at stock settings due to Intel's horrible thermal paste solution.
