Just a miniscule amount of thermal paste is on a few of the pins of my cpu. Tried cleaning it by getting a tool between the pins, but a tiny bit is still there. Will I be ok, or should I flood it with alcohol? Thanks, Ryan
 
Solution
Just pour the alcohol on or use a toothbrush to lightly rub at it? I guess it needs to be off then?
If you don't get it off I think you risk a problem....although I don't guarantee it.
Just be very careful and use rubbing alcohol and a q-tip (or whatever will work) but don't bend the pins.
