Intel Arrow Lake-S CPU gets delidded ahead of launch, showcasing tiled architecture
> The delidding process involves removing the integrated heat spreader (IHS) from the top of the CPU. It's a risky move that can damage the chip if not done correctly, but it allows for direct cooling of the silicon dies inside, which is something hardcore overclockers love for pushing performance to the limit. Of course, it also voids your warranty.
