Thermal paste on the sides of the cpu...

Obviously way to much paste used there. Anyhow if its non conductive(most are these days) it will be fine just clean it up with a paper towel with some isopropyl alcohol(can get at walmart or other like stored usually near the medications, etc since its used for cleaning cuts).

Yeah way too much lol. Just clean it up with some isopropyl alcohol like aid above. You only really have to completely cover the 4 modules outlined in this photo.
