that doesn't seem to affect the matter at hand, i'll see if i can figure something out.

So i guess the only way to find out if the IHS and heat sink make secure enough contact in my case is trial and error.

they are not bad at all but i'm the type of guy that likes to tinker with electronics on some of my spare time and make them better one way or another.

This is what im aiming at hence the concern.

Well, i just love that laptop. It's badass!!! And the heat pipe goes directly to the vent so it works perfectly. 🆒

What? I really don't see why your responses are so complex...?:unsure:

i added vaccuums on each of the side vents. LOL

It is an i9 10900k. The same that desktops use. The same exact one to be precise complete with an IHS.

i have replaced factory stock materials that and have added an extra heat pipe and will soon add three more with careful observation and thinking due to the limited space. After finishing that phase i will think of the delid but not before i figure out the potential gap issue.

LOL. What? I said it has a socket because laptops with inetgrated CPU are "naked" and don't have sockets...correct? I love it when threads derail....

i'm not looking to leave the IHS off...for now.

not it's not naked it has a socket.

I was going to delid my i9 10900k in my Area 51m r2. Then i was i thinking; when you delid since the IHS is now lower then the heat sink potentially might not make contact with the IHS. Can i get any thoughts on this matter? On a desktop you could adjust the height but i can't seem to find any...

I'm looking to add an aditional heat pipe in this case to a heat sink to better the thermal efficiency of the CPU in this case. There are thermal glues and it doesn't have to be an epoxy as long as it's got good thermal conductivity. Well, if the surface contact between the heat pipe and the...
