alexz commented on the word delidded
computer overclocking term - when people remove the metal cover from their computer's CPU and replace the thermal compound. The metal 'lid' is physically pried off.
As a techie, I don't condone this because the thermal compound you replace the original lid with generally won't be any better.
delid , lid
