The processor has been delidded and I have cleaned the integrated heat spreader (IHS) and CPU die before re-lidding using Thermal Grizzly Conductanout Liquid Metal thermal interface material between the die and the original IHS for better cooling. This worked extremely well.

The chip has an overall SP number of 99, according to my ASUS Z790 motherboard - P-Cores SP 115, E-Cores SP 69  and Memory Controller SP 89.

Right now, the IHS is pasted and glued onto the CPU (as normal), but if the winning buyer would prefer the IHS removed for direct-die cooling, I am happy to remove the IHS and clean it all up - just let me know!

Original retail packaging also included.
