    Was it worth a delid?

    Delided my AMD ryzen and direct mounted, dropped 20 degrees, so yeah it was worth it. The process was super easy with the DeLid Mate. Would do it again.

    I'm using a Kryosheet

    As Jamin said, not sticky at all. But I apply a drop of isopropanol, that#ll hold it in place, then evaporate within a few seconds, this can also be used to attach it and then rotate the graphics card upside down and it will still hold. Worked a treat with me. and no movement at all. I got about...

    I'm using a Kryosheet

    As others said, nail varnish over the small smds, but actually the cryosheet is the size of the chip, +0.5mm or so, so as long as you dont let it slip, its not a risk. as its too small to reach the conductive components.

    I'm using a Kryosheet

    Now installed on the 7900xtx Sapphire Nitro+ along with the 5800x3d in both cases installation is easy just dont move stuff about unnecessarily. The ability to avoid pump out and reuse is why I went with it. And so far no issues and impressive results. with the gpu and waterblock I have also...

    The Radeon RX 7900 XT(X) Owners Thread.

    Yeah I’m a tad frustrated, waiting to see if sapphire will reply and identify the component. I’m in a lucky position I work at a uni with the facilities to actually fix it, I just need a replacement SMD.. so we shall see if they reply

    The Radeon RX 7900 XT(X) Owners Thread.

    Exactly, that is what I expected to see when I took the cooler off. Nice clean finish, protected with nail polish. So a quick wipe down and ready to go with the water block. But alas no, it hadn’t been done. Alas my own fault for buying a card and relying on someone else to have done the process...

    The Radeon RX 7900 XT(X) Owners Thread.

    I had one, it had the Tim replaced with Liquid Metal. I went to remove the cooling block to install a water block and the Liquid Metal’s come into contact with the SMD and stuffed it. So now need a whole new graphics card. So don’t use Liquid Metal!!!! But otherwise, before it was an awesome...

    MM Access Worth It or Not?

    Before the rule change yes it was, I got a graphics card and a few other bits for the latest build and lots of stuff for the previous as well. Still one of the best places to purchase second hand components on the site. Always well looked after, always good prices and genuine sellers, much less...

    Ducky keyboards

    Mine originally had Cherry reds, The Ducky I now have has Cherry red silents, these are very nice, similar actuation, but quieter, I would suggest a wrist rest to go with it. Otherwise I am very happy with my choice, this is a lovelly keyboard!

    What game did you play last?

    sea salt and paper with the extra salt expansion, plus Leaf which was delivered earlier in the week to a friend. Got to say sea salt and paper was the best game of the year for me, well last year anyway.

    Ducky keyboards

    Yup, it was part of why I bit the bullet, 10 months on and still content. And looking at reviews the build quality is solid. And I know from experience the cherry switches last.
