Hi guys, so I bought myself a new motherboard (Asus strix z270f gaming). While applying the cooling paste it dripped slightly over. What's the best way to clean a pin up?

- that's the one thing that I did't want to happen. Then it happend. Fml

 

[Yuri Diez]

Oh man.

 

[Yuri Diez]

that gon be hard.

 

[Mikal Harniss]

Rma it.

 

[Joseph Albritton]

Rubbing alcohol and a q tip. Watch the pins though. Good luck.

 

[Arturo Gallegos]

soak it in alcohol.

 

[Joseph DiMarco]

I got liquid metal in mine and was able to suck it up with the needle, that looks like a shit show however

 

[Chris Sheldon]

The paste shouldn't be a huge deal if you get most of it off. Q-tip and alcohol. Then let it dry for a little while. Should be fine.

 

[Sachi Nguyen]

yeah rma it and tell them, it was like that

How did it drop over? Like... I don't even know how you manage to do that

 

[David Quinn]

Just be very careful

 

[Luke Brown]

Thats fine I dont know why any of you are panicing. Like a few have said.. q tip as you call them and some alcohol rubbing liquid, will come off a breeze. Doesnt even look like it would effect usage anyway

 

[Kelvin On]

How did you do that. Was the CPU not in the socket

 

[Bryan Soto]

How does this happen...... put a little paste and spread it to an even thin layer with a card or tiny spreader. Been doing it for 12+ years no issue. If its non conductive there shouldnt been an issue if u cant get it all out.

Try a qtip?
