hi there.
So my aim was to give my pc a massive clean out and a small cpu cleaner upgrade. i took it all apart as usual all fine. I took out the cpu to clean it of old thermal paste. looked back at the motherboard and some dirt, so i tried to blow it away, however a tiny amount looks as if it got sruck in 2 of the little holes of the socket. the dirt looks grey, but almost play dough texture (not actually touched it incase i push it further in).
not sure how to get it out? if it would matter?
worse case is that everything dies because of some dirt. i can get a picture of the socket if you think that would help?
Motgerboard: ASUS M4A77TD
Processor: AMD Phenom II Black edition
Any ideas would be awesome.
cheers, Rob
