I'd rather put the water block directly on the die without the heatspreader (with TIM of course) but MSI don't sell their die guards separately. If one came with the above de-lidder, I'd be getting one :).

there is one from Der 8auer as well. 30€ I think, it's also available on OCUK.
 
Cheers for that. £91 is a bit steep as a bundle, and £28 for the guard alone is not on. Good luck to him though.

I looked at this but with the 3770k I think I'd have to be so careful with the spacing that I'd either spend a fortune on shims and adaptors or cook the cpu because it's not making proper contact. Something to do with the height of the die is lower than the retention bracket. I watched a couple of demos and the benefits are amazing but I'm not that keen when my CPU is getting harder to source (and more expensive) if I cook it.
 
Really nice tool indeed, it is these kind of tools that are very useful and that will come in handy. Specially when CPUs, in this case, are so expensive and fragile. And not everyone has those kind of money to spend on more than 1 CPU for something like this... But I don't think that many would be willing to do this anyway, like myself. I've always used everything straight out of the box, stock all the time.

But nice tool though! :)
 
This is a good idea. I might take the chance to do this with this level of control. I ~would~ hate to ruin a good CPU.
