Completely agreed. All you need for Ryzen 7000 is a capable enough cooler (or the non-X variant of the chip).I don't see why you guys need to delid at all. My 7800x3d in games doesn't even break 55 celsius most of the time, though they are older games like Sleeping Dogs, but even Guardians of the Galaxies completely maxed out 165hz 165 fps 1440p... I didn't even budge past 68 celsius. I absolutely love this rig
Why would anyone delid a CPU without any plans for direct die cooling?Agreed. It's a good start, but to make the most of a delid on just about any platform these days there really needs to either be a custom heatspreader or direct die.
