It has become my routine now, for every CPU release I would first attempt to comprehend the technical specs from GN, and then bombard myself with a plethora of charts with hardware unboxed, finally finishing it up with watching der8auer delidding a brand new CPU and topping it up with some shiny liquid metal. I call this the 3 course CPU menu.
That depends on where you live .... here in the pay to play healthcare world of the US $700 would barely get you into the door of the emergency room ......
You should use pure gallium instead of liquid metal when cleaning up indium TIM. Just rubbing gallium and indium together will cause them to alloy together and form an alloy that is liquid at room temperature. Liquid metal is already alloyed and has other elements in it besides just indium and gallium to make it cheaper. You can also easily make the gallium liquid with just a bit of heat and still handle it in liquid form. The result you'll get can also be reused in place of liquid metal.
@@jebdiankerman5029 You probably don't want to take the gold off anyway, assuming it's actually gold. That coating will be to help the solder stick so it might also be beneficial for liquid metal too.
The thing with mercury is it forms an amalgam or amalgamation when it alloys with other metals. What that means is it "soaks up" the other metals and then begins crystallizing with the metal to form a rigid or semi rigid form. That's why it was used for teeth fillings. The liquid mercury could fill all of the crevices of the tooth, then gold is added until the filling hardens up. The filling then continues to harden as the crystal structures form.
How about 3D printing a cover to protect the rest of the chip when you're scraping away the indium? Could also be used to hold it level, helping prevent gouging. Added bonus of stopping the liquid metal from spilling over from that lake!
Well done Roman for having another angle than just the so manieth review with something technical which is more interesting than the oh so predicatable performance of Zen4X3D.
Fantastic video @der8auer it was great seeing you in the EK video . I'm delidding my 7950X with your delidding tool just speaking to EK to find out if their going to make a CPU block for delidded 7000 series like their new one for Intel.
and AGAIN you can see the jamb when applying / soldering the chips to the lid - again the notorious "bubbles" in the solder and pieces with not tinned parts of the crystal at all !!!
Absolutely love your content Roman! Dont forget to always include your beautiful and helpful family members, it is actually half the reason why Im watching your videos😸
I know they show the 3d cache chip added to the top but it should actually be attached below on the side opposite to the indium solder, unless they run via's all the way through the silicon die. Amazing feat of packaging.
Find these sort of videos incredibly stressful to watch lol. I think I can imagine doing it and ruining a £700 chip. I still remember the feeling when I ruined a lcd monitor I was turning into a projector twenty years ago. Stripped it down, removed the anti glare, everything going perfectly and I caught the ffc ribbon with my sleeve, devastated.
@@atavusable Exactly mate, was going to say "shit happens" in my earlier post. Horrible when things like that happen, just got to chalk it up to experience and not make the same mistakes next time lol.
Hi Der8bauer, Are the EK Quantum Velocity2 AM5 Blocks and Pump/Block combos (With 4.2DDC Pumps) compatible with a delidded 7000 series CPU and AM5 direct die frame? Unfortunately I cannot find anything online or on EK's website. Thank you! Big fan of the channel!
If someone is going to direct die cooling, is it necessary to get off the indium? Wouldn't it be the same to just add enough liquid metal to fully liquefy the indium, take off any excess, apply to the water block and then mount it? For this video it was necessary to get rid of all of the indium so that accurate measurements can be taken so it had to be fully cleaned. Normally though, I am thinking this step should be skipped. What say you?
Hmmm. Maybe they started making the cache die the exact same dimensions as the CCD's. Perhaps they also spread out the SRAM cells, and put in lots of thermal via on the die, to assist with removing the heat. Know anyone who would want to desolder their die from the substrate, and each other?
I watercooled 5960x-9900k-5950x-12900k-13900k-7950x and I noticed one thing about the 7950x other than the +20°C max temp than the previous 5950x, it took several seconds more to go from max to idle temp than every other cpu, one of the less talked benefit of custom loops is that your cpu temp goes down in 1-3s with the 7950x tough had to wait 3-5s which raised my average liquid temp over time I blame the thickness it's something even my much hotter 13900k runnin g 380w cpu only doesn't do it goes from 99 to 30 is like 2s
the IHS on the 7000 cpus is one thicc boi. not really sure why amd decided that was the best way to keep thermal solution compatibility, they could have done it another way that would have kept the IHS from becoming such a large thermal mass.
@@nemesis1588 Some diversity hire had a great idea to keep the overall thickness of cpu near the same height as AM4 so people could reuse their coolers with some additional brackets. Which is so retarded I can't even fathom how they signed off on that. As is today, you need a new bracket anyway so why not just make the cpu thinner and cooler and solve the height difference with the bracket also. Most retarded choice amd ever made.
What's the fail rate of this delidding method? I am thinking about trying it on my 7950x3d. Do you recommend a z73 nzxt aio to cool it afterwards? And what thermal paste should be used?
Finally we can silence all those fools who foamed at the mouth about the extra IHS thickness being because of the added height of the 3D memory package - it is clearly a negligible difference in height.
AMD Germany be like: Der8auer is an overclocker, these chips can’t overclock… Quick! Hide under the table! Stop answering his emails! Unplug the phone lines!
Question about AM5’s heat load, I don’t have one yet since I was waiting for the 7950X3D: Can you simulate the cooling requirements by having a 5950X with PPT/EDC/TDC limits removed that this way takes up to 250 W under full load?
So, would it be worth it to delid a 7800x3d just to replace the tim with a good liquid metal? I'm talking about not doing direct to die just replacing the tim. Wait my brain was elsewhere on that question, how am I going to reattach the heatsink ? 😅
If you had some form of metal polish like Fitz from rockit cool it shines up the die very nicely. Used when I delidded a 12900ks looked exactly like your results here till I put some polish on the die then it was mirror Finnish.
This is pure speculation, but probably because AMD Germany didn’t provide him a sample. So he got one from someone who did get a sample, but they don’t want AMD to retaliate against that person.
I thought the 3d vcache models didn't allow for voltage adjustments etc. This is interesting content but would we see any real world benefit from this?
You can adjust the voltage lower on any x3d cpu as long as the motherboard allows it (I can do it right now with my x570 msi motherboard with a 5800x3d), but if you adjust the voltage higher either with a modded bios or an external voltage regulator, the cpu will detect it and lock itself to base clock speed which in the case of the 7950x3d would be 4.2ghz. The benefit to delidding an x3d would be to increase clock speed because of lowered temperature. How much that would matter on 7000x3d's I haven't heard yet. I know in the case of my 5800x3d (that's not delidded and never goes over 80c) it will run at full clock speed under an all core workload so there would be no advantage to delid my 5800x3d, at least in my case. We'll all have to wait and see if delidding x3d's makes any difference in performance.
I hope that, too. I’m curious about AM5 configurations with 4 x Micron 32 GB DDR5-4800 ECC UDIMMs. As far as I know the tests that demonstrated issues with 4 DIMMs had been done with DIMMs with SK hynix memory chips.
@@abavariannormiepleb9470 Intel platforms also have issues with 4 dimms, it's a common problem with ddr5. Probably it's time to introduce buffered memory on the desktop platforms
Wonder if this will help with the Ghz on the v cache CCD. So far from a few tests I have seen it doesn’t even hit 5ghz. Wonder if 7900x3D is two v cache CCDs or 8+4?
It's definitely not 2 v-cache CCDs. The question is whether it's 6vc+6 or 8vc+4 which still seems unconfirmed. The fact it has a 200 MHz higher baseclock than both the 7950X3D and 7800X3D makes me suspect it'll be 6+6. That'll be strange but you may be able to squeeze out higher clocks, similar to why to the 7900X can occasionally beat the 7950X. I think it'll be hard to justify but we'll see. If it is, it makes even more sense why the 7800X3D was delayed. 6 v-cache cores will fit nicely below the 7950X3D but an 8 v-cache 7800X3D could make it especially silly. The one advantage of the 7900 (aside from 12 cores obviously) is that it can utilize full memory bandwidth with 2 CCDs vs the 1 CCD 7800. Plus a 6 core v-cache chiplet basically guarantees there's potential for a 7600X3D to release around summer. If entry level board prices improve by then, it could get very interesting.
Thx for great content + I just got the new delid tool (but waiting for a cpu 😊) Would love to see performance testing with a delided x3d, will it matter as much? Perhaps if trying to overclock (see skatterbencher vid)
Hey. This might be an uninformed question, but once we have a 7950x or 7950x3d delidded, will an ordinary AM5 AIO water cooler work with regular thermal paste, or are special arrangements needed? Thanks anyone!
If I recall correctly from his other video, the delidded cpu is lower in height than the mount for the heat sink thus will need another special water cooler block and a special mount on the motherboard.
@@mecha207 Hey, thanks! So at the moment, there's no point in delidding, as it won't be usable unless we do a complicated custom job? Or is there a way to do this that isn't too difficult?
@@ashleyperez-rd1wr No, there is no point unless you are chasing lower temperatures and are over clocking and have the supporting hardware. Honestly, even custom watercooling is pretty expensive but anyways that is my opinion on that matter.
Don't need a complicated custom waterblock, just one that isn't oversized so it can sit lower. The only custom thing is shorter screws mainly. Depends on how your mount works. I like having my custom water system versus aio, other than better performance, I can modify it to fit my needs and change with the system.
I really hope you can get hands on a MI300 with 3D die stacking. Really curious if stacking GPU dies on top of CPU dies will have an increase in die height
So AM5 has overly thick covers which make them run hot ...for no reason? (on non X3D models, it was theorized that the IHS was overly thick to give more room for fatter X3D models)

Another trick is to run Cinebench for 30 minutes and then delid + remove indium solder. It makes the same process a bit easier.

If you use solder wick, flux and a soldering iron set to low temperature, wouldn't it be easier, cleaner and safer to remove the indium solder?
Interesting idea, but I think you'd actually need a very high temperature and may risk desoldering the CPU dies themselves if you aren't careful.
