Hi,
About a week ago I was needing to swap out my cpu with another system due to a compatability issue with the mobo and the GPU and I had messed up the installation of the CPU (i5-2400) and bent the pins on the mobo, (this isn't the problem as I'm getting a new mobo) and as I was looking into the CPU I realized that there were these black spots dotted around the CPU, is this a case of the CPU being burnt or is it oil and possibly thermal compound from my fingers? (This might be because there was a excessive amount of CP when I removed the CPU that may have gotton onto the underside of the CPU during removal.
