what's that gooey shit under the processor? Is it melted?
Help me please, I think I bricked my CPU

That's the internal coolant paste, you morons blew the lid off.
post more pics so I can save them in my hardware cringe compilation
>delid
>clean
>apply paste
>test again
That's what you get for buying Incel.
Lmaooooo
Also check if you don't have paste on your motherboard CPU pins
how did you fuck up this bad? what exactly did you do? describe more precisely what you actually did because you did something really retarded
>Incel chip
It's a sign from God telling you to switch to AyyMD
Oh shit there's some lint in my motherboard's CPU socket, I can see it stuck on the pins
lemme brush it off, reapply the paste, reset the heatsink and try again. Fucking hate this shit lol
Eww, that's gross.
Apply pesticide to kill off the growth.
>brush it off
Moron. Get a q-tip, pull the cotton so it's softer and spin it around the pins rapidly. Don't apply alcohol to the socket itself, there's a percentage of water inside.
How auld?
It's fucked, your CPU cooler has crushed some of the thermoconductor out from under the lid. Don't do that.
OP post more pics you can't tease us like this you faggay
Unless you've got 99.9% isopropyl.
With only 0.01% water, it's pretty safe to use wherever
I bet you OP has 75% ethyl
What the fuck? Is this true?
zoomer
post more pictures you dumb fuck
you need to smash it and totally destroy the l3 cache so the feds don't find your
Of course it is. How the fuck do you think the heat gets from the silicon to the lid? The die is nowhere near thick enough to reach to the lid by itself.
Ok just noticed one of these transistor things on my motherboard looks all burned up, what the fuck?
>transistor things
lol, that's vrm and it can look like that under normal conditions. your cpu is what's likely fucked. post more pictures.
wat teh fuck? Did you tighten the cooler all the way until this happened?
Are you literally retarded? How hard can it be to change a fucking heatsink?
Dude I've done this dozens of times when I routinely clean my pc
I think I fucked it this time and crushed the chip and released those fluids I dunno how, I was real cautious. It was a hyper 212 black
I tightened it until it "popped" like the manual said.
> over tensioned cooler damage
I don't know what's worse, this or the die crumbling on the old naked AYYMD chips.
You have no absolutely business removing the lid from a PC user.
Here's another angle of the chip
post more pictures holy shit. take a picture of the pins of the cpu and a clear shot of the motherboard cpu slot. you need to post more pictures if you want real help. you got way more attention than you deserved because you likely ruined your cpu and possibly motherboard.
What lid are you on about? That silver thing is the clasp that mounts the cpu to the motherboard.
Different coolers have different mounting pressures.... You can't just apply the same amount of revolutions for any coolers.
If it doesn't boot, you could've cracked your cpu die OR if you're lucky, the substrate is warped such that the bottom doesn't contact the pins properly. In the case of warped substrate, you can bend the chip back until its straight and it should work.
>Not thick enough
T. Dielet
tsk tsk tsk what a buffoon look at the paste flowing from inside
Yeah I'm posting, it's not that fast on my shitty chinkphone with gcam. I'll post a bunch of relevant pics in the next few pics.
it looks like you overtightened, but I've seen cpus look like that before. it could be something else.
It boots, thing is it then goes one of two ways:
>pc restarts 3 seconds after I press the power button and it turns on, then it works normally
>pc gets stuck in a 3 second interval restart loop after I press the power button
wait so sometimes it does work?
post a pic of it standing on its side
you maybe fucked something else up. did you accidentally unplug something or is there a loose cable somewhere?
OH JESUS BENT PINS
>Then it works normally
Did you check bios is current and scan for OS errors? If it boots at all without power cycling period it's not the hardware.
RIP
Deffo sounds like , despite the clearly leaking die coolant (which would make it shutdown from overheat) you might be ok if you can straighten it. If you have a granite counter top in your house this will be a perfect surface to flatten it on. Pile as much weight as yiu can manage onto it, leave it for 24 hours and see how it goes.
OH NO NO NO!
>intel
The first and last mistake you will ever make.
GOOFED STATUS = DONE.
Every goddamn time with Intel
double dubs and rip
based retard
I fucken knew it, that's why I wanted more pics
RIP OP, time to preorder zen 3
Why do you think they moved the pins to the socket? :^)
You bent them with the Q-tip didnt you
nice dubs
Are you telling me you bent every single fucking pin? Did you put the CPU in backwards?
Yeah I've always used AMD, from Athlon to Phenom to FX but I got a steal deal for this 8700
if I knew the cpu mounting process would be this shit I would never have gotten it
anyway I tried to straighten the pins but I think I broke something off the very tips of the two bent pins, look at the pic and tell me if it's FUBAR
I just brushed it with a paintbrush, didn't use anything solid. Only used a flat screwdriver head to straighten the pins but fuck if I know if it worked.
Based
See I told you to use a pulled q-tip and you didn't listen. Moron. Enjoy your short circuits.
you can't unbend pins. the second you bend them it's gone. they're too fragile, especially inside the chip.
Sod off, you think a paintbrush managed to bend those pins? I just brushed it very lightly
I'm gonna put it all together and boot it, I'll make a webm so you can see if it starts bootlooping again.
MSI is already sending you job offers youtube.com
Yes, the pin was caught by the hairs and bent.
Nah
I think that is cement from the bricked CPU.
One last thing bros, did I seat it right?
good job asking us after you bent and clamped the cpu in place ahahahhahhaha the text is supposed to point to the RAM HAHAHHAA
>all that paste everywhere
God, I could steal your fingerprint from that image.
You lucked out. All you bent was 1x integrated graphics vcore and one unused pin.
Definitely. Absolutely no issues there whatsoever.
You can, but it's a royal pita with Intel's fish hook LGA sockets.
Yep, it's gone
It couldn't have possibly blown. YOUR MISTAKEN!
wtf? is that the silicone that holds on the ihs?
Yeah I tried to get it all off but I only had Pizza Hut tissues on hand.
>but I only had Pizza Hut tissues on hand
Is this thread satire?
Based dubs and quad numbers.
use a micromanipulator and try to microglue the pin back on
youtube.com
this fuckin thread jesus christ
It's not like you need special Israeli cloth to clean paste off your chip.
God damn it, it's FUBAR. I'm making a webm of it, it's rebooting itself every two seconds. Wtf
Intards lmao
Take a look bros, what the fuck is this? I had to turn the PSU switch off to stop it from rebooting every two seconds. Help plox
get one of these bad boys
OP states he "routinely" reapplies his thermal paste and heatsink but why, WHY DO YOU FUCKERS DO THAT, IT MAKES NO FUCKING SENSE
You do realise it would take literally FUCKING YEARS for the thermal paste to dry up and even then that is mostly if you don't use the computer. every god damn time i see people do this it fucking infuriates me
AHAHAHAHAHAHA
I had one of these things, I threw it out yesterday. What's so special about it? Looks like some speaker wire but I use headphones.
i know this is a long shot because it dumb to suggest but try reseating the ram.
Can your headphones output the error code beeps from a motherboard? What do you mean no?
>Intel
>gayming leds
>bent pins
So much for a single thread.
I opened a retro rig from 2001 recently and reapplied paste just for fun. The old one was fine, it was still paste, only a little dry. PC worked fine on the old paste. It doesn't become dust.
pringles viral advertising
Okay I moved my CPU fan from CPU OPT to CPU FAN and it rebooted exactly once after I pressed the power button, and now it's working great
the post is showing A0 which means it's all good, I think. No whine, no noise, temps are lower on my CPU than on my older cooler with the shitty paste. What gives? Will it bootloop again after I turn it off?
Well, shit, I almost thought it could be power delivery issues, but it might be just your mobo straight out shutting down because you connected your cpu fan to the wrong fucking place
I love that you know you bent your pins and fucked up your computer but you keep powering it on over and over anyways lol, gotta fuck up everything as much as possible
i said DRY UP not dust.
no it was boot looping because you plugged shit in wrong
Oh shit, just noticed my PC's time is behind by 3 hours
does this mean my CMOS battery is pozzed? Should I remove it for 5 mins and then reset it?
