    I don't know. Grabbed the link on Guru3d.com today. Maybe follow up comments in the link or see if other links show up. If this has been widespread we should have seen it before.

    Papusan, that link made me lol...

    Doesn't de-lidding (possibly) damage the cpu? Also; a sample size of one is pretty small (the others reporting the issue probably have other things going on in their platforms).

    De-lidding with the old method <could> lead to damaged cpu if you was careless. But today use a lot of people designed tools for the job. The pro knows what they go into with the old methods. And yeah, A lot people don't know what happening on their machines. Could be everything :vbbiggrin: and not a design flaw.

    rofl, right...buy our multiplier unlocked cpus made for overclocking! but hey, dont overclock them due to thermals! what a joke...

    aside from that, i couldnt care less about highres streaming. im really old school that way, i prefer all my shows and movies as LOCALLY SAVED FILES. so i can watch them whenever i want, whatever the connection quality might be :p

    I'm the same. My friend recommended Kodi and after 1 week of playing around with it I'm over waiting only to get bum streams. I'm going to keep adding to my local library.
