I can understand your reasoning for delidding... Yet, as watched several videos on the CPU in question and the 9900K, delidds etc. Sure, the temps drops significantly in benchmarks etc. But at the end of the day, those kind of loads will never really be the case on a daily basis. As games will never come close to those kind of loads and therefore heat/temps etc.

This and the fact that you just threw your warranty out of the window, IF it would break cause of the delid in a short period of time. Since you void your warranty by doing this.

Yeah and upgrade you mean the 9900K? Cause that one both cost more and runs hotter than the 8700K

Sounds like a good plan you’ve planned out for yourself Anyway, hope your current 8700K keeps on going and that you’ll get some nice temps out of the delid

I've only just delidded my 6600k so was out of warranty anyway and wish I had done it much much sooner. My temps dropped by over 20 degrees under load it was insane
