First time post on here but read peoples questions and answers all the time, love the site. This was my first time putting a hyper cool on a processor. I was an aware I was going to have to apply thermal paste and not much knowledge about it. The hyper cool came with a little tube of paste so I assumed put it all on. The hyper cool was very difficult to put on and I am trying to avoid remounting it. The paste squeezed over the sides in 2 spots but not very much. Should I just use some qtips and denatured alcohol and clean up the excess around the edges of the processor and that will be ok then? If so will anymore leak over when I plan to over clock? I didn't go any further after this step and left the computer on its side hoping some of the to much paste actually on the processor would set a bit, it looked pretty wet. Like I said I would love to avoid having to remount the hyper cool 2 because it was a serious pain. Please help me out. Thanks.
