Well more like an 80% delid lol. I originally sent this 14900ks processor off to someone to delid/lap the IHS and they f did a good job of resealing the IHS, but in it's long travels some LM wandered off and leaked from under the ihs, it found a way, cleaned it up and it ran, but temps weren't ideal, so I told myself I better delid it and clean it up and just go direct die, never having done it before.
I took my time and took breaks, and after two days got it to an ideal state and nice and clean, and am proud lol, yeah I didn't have to go through a difficult delid, as the old TIM had already bed taken care of, but still haha.
I think it came out nicely and I still have all my resistors lol.
