    It won’t get any hotter than the ambient air temperature now.

    That’s a permanent room-temperature CPU now…

  3. Looks like you de-CPUd your CPU. Quite successfully if I may add.

    Whatever the temp in your garbage can is.

    Completely noise-free, no less.

    Well that sucks.

    Try put them both together and see what happens if you boot it up? :U

    …And that’s it for the poor CPU

    Lets not be hasty, with some glue and some glitter, you could turn it into art.

    Whatever you end up getting you deserve it.

    Keep those fingers crossed.

    Back in the day, AMD CPUs was always delidded, I don’t know if lids were even a thing, and I’ve cracked the silicon on plenty of CPUs by installing the cooler at wrong angle.

    Young and stupid, now I’m just old and stupid.

  12. Try to harvest that die and make resin showcase or something

    Have you tried turning it off and back on again ?

    It should stay around ambient now. Pretty solid way to keep the temps down

    A hammer and chisel is not the right tool to de-lid a CPU! 🙂

    This is making me unreasonably mad and I don’t like how Infeel

    It will only get as warm as your room now.

  18. Was this a botched delid , trolling, or just for fun if you could with improper tools
