Reversing my Ryzen delid
As the title says, I am attempting to reverse my 7900X delid. Long story short, the temps on the CCDs were off by at least 10 degrees (35c vs 45c+ in idle). I had to custom 3D print mounting standoffs for my 240mm AIO to make contact with the CPU. Also, booting into Windows was a gamble where sometimes there would be instability, lag and the CPU wouldn't boost properly (5 ish Ghz max) even when not hitting 70c. I have now applied thermal paste to the dies and slapped on the IHS with clamps using thermal glue to hold it in place. YOLO I guess. 10/10 would not recommend.
