Ryzen CPUs are soldered, delidding has minimal impact.
- bicknyers 6y agoMy mistake, I thought Ryzen CPUs were still bonded with silicone and a ??? grade paste on the IHS
- formerly_proven 6y agoTo be honest I can't recall any AMD CPUs that weren't soldered... apart from those that didn't have an IHS in the first place ;) Intel was just like "we can save 4 $ BOM cost on a 500 $ part there" with their 4th-9th generation of CPUs. No thermal headroom? No problem.
