No. For PGA CPUs you need to use a conductive thermal paste, like Arctic Silver 5, otherwise you won't make a full connection.

>>58769669
Yeah man, you nailed it.
>>58769669
You're almost there, but >>58769735 is too nice to say you did it wrong, wash it off and try again!

>>58769669
You missed some of the edge and corner pins.
Also, you may want to consider coating the fan, too, so it can conduct the heat to the air better.

Almost OP, it's usually applied directly to the socket instead. Picture related.

Do people actually do this
>>58769669
Using toothpaste instead of thermal compound is actually the way to go.
>>58775759
False. Mayonnaise is far superior.
>>58775570
Of course why else would it have a proper and good quality tutorial like that.
>>58775782
wrong dielectric grease will do it
>>58775838
Not if you live in a slavic country, then there is no alternative to Mayonnaise.
>>58775904
Ah yes, you are correct.
>>58775904
100% true.
>>58775099
Fucking mayo
