I going to delid my 8700k next week. I read and watched several tutorials but still want to verify one thing:
How much liquid metal to apply to the die and the inside of the IHS? Is one small drop on each enough for the 8700k? I know it should cover all even showing streaks, no puddles.
Supposedly too much is not good, and too little can be very dangerous either.
who delidded the 8700k and how much liquid metal did you use?
Thanks.
Also, now a real dumb question. if applied correctly, there is no risk of the liquid metal to slowly rinse out of the CPU when the CPU is install vertically in my computer? Probably not, just want to make sure.
