It's kind of crazy how short yet good this is. It gets right to the point, yet it has so few views compared to deciding instructions that I don't think are as good as this.
Dude, that was so smooth and simple! 😦 Great job! Various painter knives sets number their tools differently, so your no.4 may not be the same as the no.4 in a different set. But, since you've shown the tool in the video, it's a moot point.I'd also wrap a bit of shrink tubing around the bend of the second tool, in order to protect smaller components and the board from getting scratched.
This is a phenomenal tutorial. Short and to the point, while still showing the whole process from beginning to end. Thank you for sharing it! If I had found this a couple years ago when I attempted a delid, it probably would have gone a lot better :P
Thats the way, I felt terrible and cringed when Vince was having a bad time, it wasnt his fault but I still knew it was done when he was jamming it in like that
I used this exact video to delid my system correctly thank you so much A tip for everyone else. Heat up the IHS for 30second to a minute at 200°C Take your time ! It would glide like butter
really don't know if you want to be doing that. heating up the heat spreader will heat up the CPU underneath causing it undue stress when they aren't very good with heat already.
@@HeavyBreathingGamerXD how long isn't relevant, the thing that damages these CPUs is the repeated change in temperature, not the level of the temperature. over time they get stress fractures from it. yes I know it is only one time but the whole point of delidding is to prolong the life of the CPU, which you arent doing if you're causing more stress fractures.
@@elmerandrewcrowley2822 you are correct but delidding with out a little heat can cause cracks in the solder as well. The whole thing is dangerous and a risk. Either way you can mess up. I’ve done plenty of successful delids with a little heat. With out a little heat that glue is super hard to cut and using more pressure would crack the solder or a slip of the hand will scratch the chip. Again this whole process is a risk just use caution
2:18 I wouldn't be so "calm" in that part. I saw people that damaged the CELL by making so much pressure upwards, the silicone glue literally deattached the PCB, but with a part of the PCB it self.. The best option would be to avoid those capacitors by any means. You can start then in the opposite corner.
MGOFor3ver starting from the opposite corner will increase the chance of scratching the CPU the best way is not to remove the toll once you start deliding
method id good but not so easy and don't recommend doing it very high risk of cutting chips , instead use very thin plastic fishing line that way you can cut through the sticky layer easily with out any harm on chip
@@mark12358 Not true. Idk where you are but here the max setting of a hair dryer is no where near (hundreds of degrees) less than the melting point of lead-free solder. The insulation doesn't get damaged unless you use significantly higher temps too
without heat? what is yor room temp. 60 degree c ? yes i see ;) here in Germany i have round 15 degree in the Workshop;) and your english is far better than mine ! :) greetings:)
That's a CECH-2000 series PS3 slim, right? The one which still has the 65nm gpu? Do you know if the IHS is already sort of glued on on the RSX of these? I'll probably have to delid both the cpu and gpu on mine because the fan is ramping up really hard, but I'm sort of wary because I already killed two PS3 fats when trying to delid in the past...
I’m doing this right now with the same painters knife.. but the adhesive won’t budge and I’m applying a lot of pressure… adhesive is rock hard.. any advice?
is it good enough? I'm currently debating wether i want to take the risk and pop these off to apply some thermal paste underneath as well. Or should i just top some paste on top. will that be good for a few years? im totally fine reapplying it every couple of years instead of bricking it lol
Very good video...How do you put it back without that machine and can u do this with the gpu? Kif bitraje3 il cpu ba3d itkhalis wa momken ta3mol nafs al shi lal gpu? Shokran

from what i hear, u dont. Its held in place when u screw back in the heat sink clamps and i hear its just overall better to not reglue when u need to reapply thermal paste again in the far future
@@scottparker1902 can't say, never heard of it until I watched the video just before by "My Mate Vince" that led to this video. Now you've got the name search for products on sites with lots of reviews or hit the console repair forums see what they recommend.
