Hi,
I am in the process of building 3 PCs, my mum's my dad's and also upgrading mine, and to do this, I need to remove the thermal paste, I do not own any rubbing alcohol and after searching in pharmacies, grocery shops and hardware stores, B&Q if you wanted to know, I could not find any either. I was wondering if I will be able to clean the thermal paste off the CPU and the heatsink without any major risks, I will be removing them both before doing so, however I wanted to know 1. Whether it is safe to do so at all. 2. If I should take any other precautions if I do decide to do this. I am switching from a BeQuiet! Dark Rock Advanced, to a corsair H100i
Any reply is appreciated, thank you
