Thermite works better. It's also easy to make and fun to use. Just be slightly more careful than the typical YouTuber.

Thermite carries a much higher risk of damage via inhalation, exposure, and both primary and secondary combustion. While it may result in what seems to be more conclusive destruction of the chip, I hesitate to recommend its use over a simple power drill.
