I just got a tiny bit of thermal paste on my cpu pins am i fucked g?
Do you THINK you're fucked?
It is arguably harder to post here than to do a Google query.
This place is shit.

I've done some research and heard diffrent things. Its only an extremely small amount on one pin but that can still fuck it up. Im about to plug it in...
Also i have already put thw cpu into the socket so i dont do t know if cleaning it will help now.

>cpu has pins
You're fucked.
>Posting to /g/
>Not just cleaning the shit off
FUCK
This is what I would probably do: get a tooth pic and dip it in your rubbing alcohol (since you're using thermal paste I'll assume you have some on hand), if you don't have a toothpick use a pin. Get as much as you can off with that and fucking pray to Gaben it was good enough.

I don't see what difference it would make unless the thermal paste is conductive.
