Hello, I have a serious problem after delidding my cpu, I see at bios high temps (around 60+-) and windows can't load in on boot up – I'm getting an instant bsod. I'm confused because I think I've done everything right, a little background on myself – I'm a computer technician (not saying they can't be wrong sometimes with doing stuff, but less chance).
I've tried to run the chip on 4.6 Ghz at low voltage, at windows bootup I was able to see around 80c max and then it quickly bsod. I've took the cpu after the delid and took off all of the black silicon and glue on the edges, took off a good chunck off the cpu die and made it flat (as shown in videos), Tried a different copper IHS and also the original one – nothing helps. I'm using Thermal Grizzly Conductunaut in between the die of the IHS, and the top of the IHS. Basically my PC can't function anymore. What would you suggest?

Are you going for direct die cooling or were you just changing to a different ihs?
Taking material off the CPU die is a huge risk.
1: you could have damaged the CPU (incl heat sensors)
2: if material is taken off the die there may be a gap to the IHS, in that case you need to lap an equal height off the bottom edges of the IHS.
1st thing to do is unseat/remove from socket and remover contact frame and reseat the lot.
I had to reseat my delidded 9900KS 3 times to get the seating pressure correct and stop bsods and RAM problems.
Edit: I note you are not doing direct die so it’s possible you removed enough material to have bad contact between die and IHS and are hitting tjmax and shutting down?
I already see a decently sized (in terms of the die itself) damage on the bottom side of die, might be an issue.
