| + | [title] Clean off the old thermal paste from the processor |
|---|---|
| [* icon_caution] ***Don't use any metal objects or tools*** for this step, as they could mar the fragile, exposed processor. | |
| [* black] Use the flat end of a plastic spudger or the edge of an old credit card to remove any large chunks of solidified thermal paste from the surface of the processor. | |
| [* icon_caution] Don't use excess force here—you don't want to gouge the surface. | |
| [* icon_caution] Be careful working near any small soldered components on the motherboard surrounding the chip. |
