delid will get -5-10 cooler, worth it or not, depends whether you need the cooler temp and lose out on warranty and resale value.

Good temps at 8Xdeg range. But I wont recommend to delid it. Unless you wanna squeeze out a little more deg. Prolly after delid, your temps will hover around 7Xdeg range. And more unified temps across.

Warranty wise, you will need to reseal it back with black silicon and send it back.

IMHO, not really worth to delid. Cause you can get at most around 100MHz after you delid. Or you may get nothing more.

Haswell looks so much better leh. My i5-3570k looking at 1.32V @ 4.6GHz, cooled by H100iGTX.

Yes, temp is lower but temp does not affect performance and it voids your warranty, thats why its not worth it.
