[QUOTE="Kiohtee, post: 15601527, member: 103998"] I would not be OK with my CPU running at 90 anything firstly. My personal cutoff point is 80°C. Secondly, I think you're misunderstanding a little, because at 100°C the thing is supposed to shut down to prevent permanent/immediate damage. That's not the same as it being OK to run at 90-100°C. If I were you, I'd revert back to the factory settings until getting a de-lid, which brings me to this: The de-lid was most definitely was worth it. I forget the exact voltage, but prior to the de-lid I was limited to 4.8GHz. Post de-lid I [I]lowered [/I]the voltage and [I]cranked it up[/I] to 5.0GHz, again, using [I]less [/I]voltage... and it was perfectly stable. It also, as previously mentioned, stays MUCH cooler than it did even at stock values under stress. Intel really screwed us Kaby Lake guys with their IHS/paste method. To answer your second question though, I used Silicon Lottery's de-lid service, which is $49.99 plus freight. [URL]https://siliconlottery.com/collections/all/products/delid[/URL] [/QUOTE]
