how do i clean off the pre-applied thermal paste from my stock heatsink? (amd athlon 64 socket am2) thanks.
 
Just take and scrape off as much as you can and then clean the surface with Alcohol, both the heatsink and the processor.
 
lol man i had that same question but i never asked it... lol i acc got it on my hands ans shit wouldnt come off w/ water i had to use some RAM crap... for the heatsink all i did was rubb a papper napkin on it (BOUNTY) so it dont rip :p
 
thanks guys. i got it off. most of it scraped off very easily. and the alcohol took of all the extra grease.
