Clean it with rubbing alcohol. It should be OK. Check the CPU socket on the motherboard with a magnifying glass.

Were there any problems that prompted you to remove the CPU?

i dont see anything jumping out. probably just petina on the brass pins. i think they are brass, since they can bend so easily but also have a melting point of like 900c.

Hi,

I had to remove the cpu since the intel stock fan made a grinding noise then stopped spinning

You would've only had to remove the cooler. Get a good custom cooler and put it back together and try it.

Alright, I'll remember not to remove the cpu. The good thing is that the cpu seems ok.
