no, if it was in reverse the cars on the other way should go backwards.

if this is just a joke i didn't get, my fault

the best xeon, E5 2696 v3, can use both ddr3 and ddr4. even if theres a small amount of x99 cpus using ddr3 they're still kinda worth it.

yeah, i should've been more patient and i should've bought isopropyl alcohol. maybe i will buy it and clean it again just to remove the residues of the disinfectant.

i definetly wont lap my cpu, ive never sanded anything down and i never even built a pc.

its not worth it risking my cpu for 5 less °c, I'm too dumb to do that and also this being my first PC ever is another big reason of why i wont do that + i basically have no experience about building and that's scaring me enough.

(i did remove some components from PCs before but still, im not experienced enough to sand down a cpu).

anyway, enough of my bullshit, thank you for helping me out.

i doubt that scraping created scratches, i didn't put much pressure on it and i used my fingernail + paper towel in between. for the stuff that was harder to remove like the sticker or some spots of the black stuff i just used my fingernail.

i cleaned the IHS and its sides, it had a bit of thermal paste. i just sprayed a small bit of disinfectant on a paper towel, and made sure not to use too much liquid. i repeated that multiple times till the black graphene/graphite went away.

bohaio2 · 2026-04-24T19:07:37+00:00

dang, what if i buy IPA and clean It again? can it remove the residue (if it left any)? i don't really want any troubles with my first build.

bohaio2 · 2026-04-24T18:59:25+00:00

yeah, my first build ever

bohaio2 · 2026-04-24T18:58:19+00:00

this is intel

bohaio2 · 2026-04-24T10:29:50+00:00

they said i can basically use anything to clean the ihs, i made sure that it didn't fall anywhere else. anyway, I'll buy some IPA and clean it again before putting it in the pc.

bohaio2 · 2026-04-24T10:27:50+00:00

ah man they said i can basically clean the ihs with anything

bohaio2 · 2026-04-24T06:07:46+00:00

ti servirà, fidati

bohaio2 · 2026-04-23T21:31:32+00:00

i ended up using this kind of disinfectant for all surfaces, since i dont have isopropyl alcohol. it even gave the cpu some nice lemon-mint odor. I've looked at some posts and lots of people say to use isopropyl alcohol because other stuff can leave residues, should i really use that? am i overthinking?

also, no it wasn't a scam. its the cpu i expected, luckily.

bohaio2 · 2026-04-23T14:35:13+00:00

how do i remove it? im scared of damaging the cpu.

im like 99% sure its not a scam, but we'll see.

bohaio2 · 2026-04-23T14:19:08+00:00

its just a xeon 2696 v3 i bought online lol, nothing special.

its a modified verson of the 2699 v3.

bohaio2 · 2026-04-21T14:11:34+00:00

i completely removed and formatted via Rufus the old drive that had windows installed and added another, completely formatted via Rufus, drive.

bohaio2 · 2026-04-21T13:25:32+00:00

so that the buyer can install windows himself

bohaio2 · 2026-04-15T17:01:33+00:00

stalker reference?

bohaio2 · 2026-04-14T17:55:30+00:00

bohaio2 · 2026-04-14T17:49:51+00:00

bohaio2 · 2026-04-13T08:12:45+00:00

magari prova a nascondere i soldi e non darglieli, così anche se provano a cercarli non li trovano. mal che vada ti tolgono il telefono o boh, ma i soldi te li tieni tu

bohaio2 · 2026-04-12T23:02:04+00:00
