Hello, I am moving my cpu to a new motherboard. I was wondering if it would be okay to use the included heatsink again. I already cleaned the cpu and heatsink I just don't want any problems from this if there are any potential ones, thanks.

There shouldn't be any issues at all, as long as the motherboard matches up. Make sure you get new thermal paste on and the old completely cleaned off and you should be good to go. Good luck and hope this helps

Okay thank you :)
Motherboard does match up and the thermal paste I got was Arctic Silver 5. I just cleaned it using Isopropyl alcohol. Again thanks!
