Or does one simply have to remove the waterblock about once a month to be sure it hasen't fused with the CPU?

I'm wanting to de-lid for better temps but it does not sound like Liquid Pro is a solution for anyone who might have to move the CPU or waterblock later? It wouldn't bother me at all putting it on the outer IHS since that can be lapped down to remove the liquid pro, but it sounds like once it gets bound on the CPU die thats pretty much game over, and time to buy a new CPU?

Still worth delidding if I just use some TC grease 0098?
no mate we do it for be stable at 4800HT+

benchers use LN2 or SS and dont need deliding, in fact deliding will harm for them with an open chip can be catastrophic

check my page here all info before and after the delid pics etc...
