Anyone knows how to clean Thermal Compound. I applied Artic Silver 5 and now I wan't to change my cooler so will need to clean it.
I read it can be cleaned with Isopropyl Alcohol but not able to find it anywhere. Anyone have any idea??

You can't find any alcohol?
Then boy, use nailpolish remover.
Don't try beer or vodka.

I just don't know where to look.. Is there any place where I can get Isopropyl Alcohol
And I wasn't going to try vodka or beer on my CPU.

I think medicine shops / dispensary should be a nice place to start with.

Medicine shop. Ask them for 'the alcohol used for sterilization'.

^^ very nice especially for just using a cooler like hyper 212 evo with a a single fan .. the ~5.2 GFhz OC is stable ? and what's the load temps and do me a favor and post in the required format.

Will do later.
Have not run any stability test. I was doing multiplier testing.

The max I got with 4 cores enabled + stability testing is: 4.8GHz @1.38V

Need to test later with other coolers.

Hello I have query.
Can I overclock Intel e2140 currently on stock 1.6ghz.
I'm using Gigabyte ga-g41mt-s2p motherboard.

 

[topgear]

In a simple word yes, but don't go too far, keep an eye on cpu temp and make sure you have a decent PSu.
