I seen linus cleaning the CPU and cooler in a fresh build, I unfortunately cannot find 99% isopropyl alcohol anywhere for a decent price or in a decent time frame, I have 70% alcohol wipes but i'm afraid about the water content or the apparent impurities they leave.
If you could help me out that would be great.
Thanks

You only need 70% + isopropyl aclohol, techies like to keep 90% around because we nerd hard and it dries faster. The stuff you have in the bathroom will work just fine, the wipes would be perfect. 70% is more than safe.
