Ryzen 7 9800X3D gutted to get a look inside AMD’s gaming champion — die shot reveals CPU cores and 3D V-Cache
The video of the autopsy “, filmed by someone whose username on Bilibili translates to “all nonsense,” shows the 9800X3D’s heat spreader removed using a blowtorch. AMD uses solder to connect the CPU to the heat spreader, which only melts at very high temperatures, hence the need for a blowtorch to remove it.
