Back to Reality: The 9900K Delid & Liquid Metal

We're revisiting the 9900K delid to bring everyone back to reality on whether or not delidding is really worth it with Intel's new solder.

This content looks again at delidding the 9900K, removing its solder, and applying liquid metal. We all know that Intel's solder isn't the best, but it is better than the previous Dow Corning thermal paste, and it is definitely a move in the right direction. The question now is whether it's still worth delidding, as the narrative is starting to run away from the practicality of a delid with the 9900K CPUs.
