Hello forums,
I have recently installed the corsair h80i into my system, only thing is one of the screws broke when installing, now I have resolved the issues adn gotten my hands on new screws, but a partial amount of the thermal paste was applied to the cpu, while the rest was not so similar. The system is yet to be booted while this heastsink is on.
I have attached some pictures for you to see my dilemma.
My only questions is: Should I just leave it and re-attach the heatsink with the thermal compound the way it is? Or should I clean off both with some alcohol/artic cleaner, and just install someother thermal compound? If so which?
Thanks!
