hey guys I just recieved my replacement CPU cooler which is the Noctua NHU12P and was wondering if there was an in depth guide on how to install since all i got was a sheet thats sort of hard to follow since I'm not very experienced at installing this stuff and also is there a proper way to remove thermal paste from my CPU?

Give DS a call. They can walk you through it, assuming they answer the phone.

If knowledge is power and power corrupts, then total knowledge corrupts totally.

I'm actually finding the installation fairly easy sofar but to remove the thermal paste apparently you need 99% alcohol and q tips I have the q tips but I only have 70 % rubbing alcohol would that still work fine?

Get arcti-clean. The stuff really makes it easy to clean the CPU.

You can use the 70% stuff. Just make sure you wipe the 30% of water that is left over with a paper towel and that it's all dry.
