higher clocks than anyone else, including me, and I've been doing it for 20 years.  

 

Yes but you're rubbish Max.

Also my 5.2GHz de-lidded, water-cooled 7700k disagrees.

That's just binned though Max, no special skill.

I have a 5.8 GHz de-lidded 8700K that runs at only one volt! On AIR! 😉

If you had such a chip it would be the golden sample of all golden samples and I would offer you $1000 for it.

Speaking of de-lidding ....got it done (with razor, worked like a charm -thanks for the tip) two nights ago.  Yes, there is more to my delid adventure .... I'm thinking De Niro, as in Robert in the movies Cape Fear and Meet the Fockers .... liquid metal all over my house ....gonna be vacuuming it up for the next several months, I reckon.

Yeah, the mobo is fine. 🙂

Careful with that gallium not to get it on your skin - it is toxic.

Yeah. don't tell my wife. She's wondering where some of her favorite kitchen towels have gone.

LOL

Gotta keep shop towels handy for computer work, especially when water cooling or de-lidding.  Fortunately it looks like Intel finally went back to solder and my upcoming 7900x de-lid will be my last.  As fun as it's been, I won't miss the potential for ruining expensive computer parts just to fix Intel's cost-cutting measure that was introduced with Ivy Bridge.

Ha... the bloody tubes require two hands. Otherwise the syringe just suddenly squirts. I shot it all over my fridge door the first time I delidded. 

 

It was like being a teenager all over again. 😚
