For PC DIY players, they must all hate the silicone grease in Intel's processors. Although they will have no impact on daily use, they are simply a nightmare in the hands of overclockers. If you want to make processors more Good performance or temperature performance, opening the lid is an essential operation, and today we come to talk about the necessary equipment to open the lid - opener.
Among many players, opening the cover is not a very common operation, and few people go to open the cover repeatedly. Therefore, the utilization rate of the opener is very low, but the opener on the market is from ten to several hundred. Yuan does not have to wait. Is it necessary for individual users to use expensive equipment?
Recently we had two different lid removers on the market. One is about 20 yuan for domestic opener, the other is nearly 300 yuan for import opener. Here's a look at what's different about them.
Phase 1: Packaging Comparison
▲ import cover opener
▲ Domestic Opener
First of all, on the packaging, the two kinds of decappers gave me a sense of simplicity. However, the imported decapper was more expensive after all. It still gave a small bag for easy storage. The homemade one used only a small one. The plastic bag was given over, and the feeling of leakage would be felt at any time. Since its price was so cheap, it wouldn’t be given up.
The imported lid remover also supports the lid function, so the accessories for the lid are many and relatively complete; only the lid opener body, a hex wrench and a blade are used on the domestic lid opener, which is indeed a bit shabby, but for the lid to open That's enough.
Phase II: Work Comparison

▲ Domestic Opener
In terms of workmanship, the two types of lid openers are almost incomparable. The store promotes the use of sophisticated CNC machining for the opening and closing of the lid. The texture of the surface is really good, and the edges are also very good at transition. There will be no hand-wringing. Feeling, but to tell the truth, an opener's workmanship is so excellent, it does not seem to have any use for eggs; domestic opener side here, there are many differences in workmanship, the structure is very simple, just to ensure normal use.
Phase 3: Use Comparison
Next is the use of the most concerned about everyone. First of all, using the opening and closing device, you can see that the position of the CPU is marked on the lid opener. This ensures that the internal components will not be damaged when the lid is opened. This is well received. The fixture is also relatively stable.
Put the processor, put on the cover, tighten the screws to open the cover, the disadvantage of the import cover opener is not intuitive to see if the cover is successful, need to pay attention to open the cover when the cover is open The sound is perceived by the change of force, and there is no problem as long as you do not use too much force when you open the lid.
The domestic decapper does not have much design for the fixing of the processor, and there is a large gap underneath. Therefore, when opening the lid, be more careful, but fortunately you can see if the lid is successfully opened, or just do not There is no problem with too much force.
Because you can see the condition of the top cover at any time, you can stop using it immediately after opening. Therefore, opening the cover with a domestic opening cover is also relatively simple.
Phase 4: Cover Comparison
The most difficult operation of the entire lid opening operation is the final lid step. It is necessary to grasp the amount of vinyl used, press the top lid in place as quickly as possible, and also have a long enough pressing time. The import lid opener also has The function of the cover is to press the attached tool on the opener. The position of the cover is more accurate and the use is also convenient.
The homemade lid remover does not have a lid closing function, so it is necessary to purchase a separate set of tools for lid closing. The price is about 30 yuan.
Although this closure is very rough in terms of workmanship, if you have obsessive-compulsive disorder, it may be very difficult to use, but it is still accurate, and it is not too much in use compared to the imported lid remover. Big difference.
to sum up
In general, domestically-made decappers are around RMB 20, together with capped equipment. The set is about RMB 50. The imported opening caps we find on the Internet also have a minimum price of RMB 100. It will not greatly improve security, it is only reflected in the good workmanship and two-in-one function.
Therefore, for the average player, as long as the cap is opened in accordance with the correct procedure, there is no need to purchase a high-priced import cap opener.
Finally, we must remind everyone that there are great risks in opening the lid and we need to exercise caution.
