A little tip for everyone who is doing this for the first time: first remove the thermal paste from the heatsink, so you are a bit more prepared when removing it from the cpu

[mrdiamond]

Why didn't you put the heatsink upside down? Now there's thermal paste on the table

[dylansmith]

You left out info especially if it's amd.

[lesleygreer]

Bruh this popped up as soon as I was about to change my cpu cooler

[justanormalguy]

You have an calm voice and thank you for helping me with my cpu

[luka]

Thats cool and all but can we talk about how clean that thermal paste spread was at the beginning?

[wisico]

AMD users, don't follow this guide; twist the cooler & also warm up the CPU beforehand if you can to avoid the CPU from ripping off the socket.

[Zakumei]

AM4 Users, twist and wiggle the Heat Sink off, or you will yank the processor clean off, and that can leave you with bent, broken, and or missing pins, and i mean it when i say, thats a bitch to fix

Just saw this as I’m about to reapply thermal paste bc my cpu is running slightly hotter than I’d like. Thanks dude!!

CAUTION: Do not remove a CPU cooler for an AMD CPU this way. AMD sockets use PGA instead of LGA, which means that you could pull your processor out from its socket and bend pins.

Warm up the processor for a couple minutes, then shut your PC back off, unscrew your cooler, then twist the CPU cooler from left to right until you feel the contact between your CPU and the cooler loosen, then start to twist L/R and lightly start pulling it away from the motherboard at the same time. It should then essentially pop right off and you can clean your processor from there.

I expected one of those nightmarish memes where they drill holes in the socket. Thank you, algorithm for not ruining my sleep again.

My first time changing my cpu cooler, i encountered a case of : cpu stuck onto cooler

[nullmemaddress]

Instructions unclear... accidentally got poisoned from licking the thermal icing off

[bruhhhhmoment]

Im taking my cpu and gpu from my prebuilt and putting it in a new case so i can upgrade in the future

[boki]

My fan turned from silver to black when cleaning. Is that normal

[shinshikodo]

I'm not using a thermo paste ..i just cleaning the CPU from time to time... but CPU usage in task manager always high

[Zainnigga]

Does using alcohol swaps work? I dont want to damage my pc

[thedepression]

Quick Question, does pure alcohol work?

[lilskely]

One question. Does it really need isopropyl alcohol to rub the old thermal paste? If yes which % should it be?
