Just What's Needed To Clean And Prepare For A New CPU Installation....
I have always used denatured alcohol to remove excess thermal paste from CPUs and heat sink and I still do when that's all that is available. However, after trying out the thermal cleaner in this kit, I find it does a much better job of getting rid of the left over paste that's left when one swaps out a CPU or changes a heat sink setup. I had an older Prescott Pentium 4 that had dried up compound on it and it was really caked on. I was able to get a good bit of it off with denatured alcohol but there was a residue left so I deiced to try the clean from this kit. I didn't think there was much left on the CPU, but when I cleaned it with the cleaner I was pleasantly surprised to see more paste come off. I have tended to use this cleaner as a &#34;as clean as possible&#34; solution when I want as much old paste off the CPU for a fresh install. And BTW the purifier does help when getting ready to apply fresh paste for the new installation. Well worth the having...
