Aqua Computer Dr. Delid tool for Skylake, Kaby Lake and Coffee Lake processors;

Tool for heat spreader removal and reinstallation for Intel Skylake and Kaby Lake processors. Dr. Delid can be used for delidding of Skylake and Kaby Lake processors as well as precise reinstallation of the heat spreader after exchange of the thermal interface material (thermally conductive paste). During heat spreader removal, the heat spreader is rotated against the CPU base. This prevents damage of the thin PCB of the processor as the force is distributed to all four sides of the CPU - opposed to only one side when using tools with a sliding mechanism. The heat spreader is removed without jolt or excessive force.
