If only you would do it straight... it kinda hurts my "premium" thing. To be fair, never delidded anything, so I have no idea how hard it is to align IHS correctly, but it looks like something what you would buy on aliexpress. Especially on b-rolls ;p
Dimi Supposedly it’s even better when you don’t because the IHS now makes direct contact with the substrate, removing as much distance as possible between the underside and the die. Adding adhesive during the relidding reintroduces that air gap (possibly even more than the original mounting since you aren’t a robot who can exactly measure and spread adhesive), sacrificing some heat dispersal.
delidding is easy. you really don't need the fancy tools, I've always just done it with a razor blade. been doing it for years, started with an athlon 245 and mercury (since gallium compounds weren't available back then) and have done it to every non-soldered chip I've gotten my hands on since. only messed it up once on a pentium 4 that turned out to be soldered, but that chip was free anyway. these days I'm using conductonaut, but the concept is the same, only difference is I don't need any hydrochloric acid for it.
@shaunskii or nail polish.
so when is linus getting the new lazer engraver? he said no one around there has one so im assuming this means a new toy for linus?
True 😂
that xenomorph on the bench is looking sexy :D
1:31 Linus drop tips at it again
10:18 lol, intel packed their i9 9900k like this, but linus was first!
you were at a jewller , trust me check if they didnt replace it with a celeron
Gimme dat
gold plating reduces roughness. As a result the adhesion is weak
Dude...make ur shirts 15 bucks and you might just sell some...just saying
Der8auer❤️❤️
beautiful
Just one question. Can you even see what u did once you put it in a system?
That is the best thing I've ever seen you do.... Love it..!
you need to use a transparent water block for that thing
why did a COFFEE company sponsor a TECH channel?!
Demographic overlap, I'd say a fair amount of the audience is young professionals with disposable income (also broke students).
Intel has invented a pentium which is made of gold
How’d you manage to not bend a single pin during all of this wtf lol
X86 is gonna be the downfall of Intel, things are moving to ARM, this is one area AMD is beating Intel in, tablets and laptops are already making the move.
this video... it inspired me to learn cpu design. and os design soon.
i want to be as smart as Anthony...
What brand silicone conformal spray? I don't see too many sprays.
The CPU is going to be covered by the cooler. What is the point? The only thing intel could do better is pricing.
@ 6:09 - his watch says "sell" :D
Amazing work
SMT- the hyperthreading intel should have made!!!
CPU now stand for Cool Processing Unit. Thanks guys for another awesome vid
Madrinas coffee is expensive as shit and not even good. Do not be fooled.
u know silver has better heat conductability than gold
Linus, you so did NOT say jew-la-ry!
So now you have 2 sponsors
How much for it
5:07 you said *almost* no-one.
So someone at LMG has one?
10:17 my ocd says that's not straight
Damn.... I kinda want this one though
I have never seen an i7 in 5Ghz. Coooool
You should have made a bunch of them then sold them for a price jump
Anthony is cool af
When linus says that something is really expensive
It is really very expensive 😆
he's the man that spent $140K on 8K video camera's.
40 percent discount
For the first time I am going to try out his sponsor 😅
That before and after...lol
Looks like shit lol but it was funny
Yea they should have. But they didn’t.
Intel and LMG made it
Now that they are soldering the IHS you kind of wish you didn't make that comment huh??? The soldered IHS can't be delidded now meaning we can't get the best performance possible due to low quality control on the IHS. It's almost mandatory now that you lap the IHS to decrease core to core deltas. We are seeing upwards of 40c deltas which sucks and lapping only fixes it so much. Gamersnexus lapping their cpu and did not see a huge difference but if the soldered IHS could be delidded and liquid metal applied without putting the IHS back there's a good chance of being able to overclock another 400-500mhz BUT WE CAN'T!!!! REALLY LINUS????? SOLDERED IHS!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
roses are red
violets are blue
I got clickbaited
After 1year from this videos due
I want a 8088k with a 32bit databus.
I cringed at the blood
You used an tool from derBauer lol
He used the Diamond Delidder from der8auer
Man you are adding gold the best heat cunducting natural metal
Bzzt. Silver is a better conductor of both heat and electricity.
I didn't catch what he did with the cpu? His wife probably owns it now,right Linus?
neat and all, but it's kinda pointless if it's covered by a heatsink or cooling block, unless you get a sticker that's a photo copy of the gold cpu to put on your tower to show what it looks like, but even then, what's the point?
Please give me this processir
Try to run windows 10 on the 2.5MHz CDIP variant of the original i8086!!
All that work, only to be covered up by a liquid cooling block.
Employee: wheres linus
Other employee: he went to go drink some couphy
Employee: WHAT!!!
Linus: (falls in through the roof) guess who turned the frigde into a helicopter
Learn to type properly.
i know gold plate is cool and stuff. but silver is more functional. its more conductive to heat.
**Mechanical keyboard test**
Is it just me that took time to read the title
It’s 12:25am and now I want coffee....
thanks Linus....
Another thing nobody needs
Anthony is great!
diet....pepsi.... DIET PEPSI?!!! REALLY?! unsubbed, unfollowed, unwatched....
Awesome!!@! The custom cpu you will never ever see again once you place your water block!!!
The only dislikes were from Intel employees
In 2021
Friend: What computer are you buying?
Me: A linus computer.
And after all that work you just put an cooler on top of it and never see it again lol
Coffee Mocha in russian sounds like "Coffee Pee" :D
5:24 that smile dude
Oh my......so very sweet. I would have loved that. I won the regular 8086k so its great - but oh my.....yours is soooo sweet. Anniversary worthy.
i thought it was a condom
Intel should have done exactly what Linus did plus make the CPU with either a blue sub straight for Intel or a brown one for that retro CPU look. They should have also made that CPU the most baller consumer chip they could've made.
Electroplating!!!
I have not seen brush plating done for over forty years when I left the electro deposition industry, we used to do remedial chrome or nickel for machinery. You could have a renumerative sideline going there :-)
I9 9980x
why the fuck would you use music with voices?!
5:17 AAAAAUUUUGGGGHHHHH!!!! He said "JOO-lery!" 'Tis one of the words I may not hear. Right up there with "NOO-kee-ler."
Repeat after me: JOO-well-ry. JOO-well-ry. JOO-well-ry. Repeat this 50,000 times. I'm an old guy. Soon I shall join the unseen.
I WILL haunt you. So help me.
JOO-well-ry. JOO-well-ry. JOO-well-ry.
Cool PROCESSOR Intel core 7
You should have sanded down almost to the depth initially desired on the CPU lid. And then had it in graved and then gone through one more time with a quick sanding past to get some of the burrs off and then do that gold shit you do. Buuuut hell I'd buy what you made
3:20 "eh" what a true canadian
anyone know what the keyboard Linus is using is
5:23 LMFAAAAOOO
As an electroplater, have to say your brush plating technique more than sucks, must have taken ages to get a decent amp-hour count, but kudos for sticking at it, guess its easier with a specialist rectifier though.
is it me or when i saw the picture it looked like a condom
Can someone step on my console peasant ass... please
i am interested to work at your place if i turn 18 but i live in europe
Why does it matter how the cpu looks?
Wow........this video is literally just painting a CPU, which causes it to literally loses XMP and Multicore Enhancement
Can we buy coffe at store
Jewler: "So you want me to engrave this patter into the heatspreader? Will you be able to see it?"
Linus: "Nah It will be completely covered by a CPU cooler and never see the light of day again."
Jewler _Insert "Am I a Joke to you?" Meme here_
Shouldn't it be Pentium Gold instead?
RGB CPUS
Hi Linus loved your version of the cpu with the gold...i see you know how to overclock wish you could help me with that on my Asus Z97 Deluxe using Intel core i7 4790K.... anyway i love your video's and your work
I saw condom in the thumbnail
DER BAUER
**INTEL CPU MUSEUM**
Linus tech tips the gold cpu.
10:24 whats wrong with the gold plate there?
Grüße gehen raus an der8auer lol :D
Anthony rocking the forehead mustache haha.
"it's so cooool!!" and then put a ventirad on it
Awesome
