Hello to all the PROs out there!
I just bought a new Phenom ii x4 965 BE last 5days ago and I'm planning to buy a new cpu cooler.
And i found out that before installing the new cooler, I need to clean my "Processor" using Isopropyl Alcohol at least 70% to 90% .
I know some of you notice, that there are letters and numbers that are written at the processor ( im not sure if serial or name, but im sure something is written to it) which can be found from where you will put the thermal paste.
Questions:
If i remove the old thermal paste from my cpu using alcohol will the written
letters be remove? does it mean my warranty also remove/void?.
And please help me to choose the best cpu cooler from the 3 choices listed, and do they have a thermal paste included after purchasing?
1. Noctua NH-C12 SE14
2. CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO
3. CoolerMaster Hyper212
Thermal paste choose between Tuniq and CoolMaster the only 2 thermal paste available here in my place. (Optional because i don't know if the cpu cooler includes a thermal paste after buying it)
1. Tuniq TX-2 Thermal Compound
2. CoolerMaster thermal paste
Thanks!
