Default how to clean a amd xp 1700+
i ordered one at ebay for my old computer, and got it delivered today...
that piece is a mess! looks like a big cake on the cpu, and its hard!
i tried to remove it with a PVC piece, which was good for the BIG sh!t on the sides...
but on top of the cpu, the plate, there is still some thermal conductance paste left.
and its so much you can feel it, but i cant remove it...

what can i use to remove it?

EDIT:
its a Palomino 1700+: 1.466 MHz [9. Oktober 2001] - at least i think it is, as it has a brown board and the newer one have a green one afaik

ok, had a look on my fan, which isnt even its pretty gravelly.
thats why i did not clean up the plate that much.
i put up the termal paste and booted. my system goes up to 46°C which seems ok to me.
the best part is... its a cooler for a 3000+ but its a 1700+ underneath so i was able to exchange the fan on the cooler from one that has 2800rpm with one with 2400rpm! now the loudest thing in the computer is the HARDDISK

NOTE: its a angular homemade cubic server case! made of acrylic glass! even the psu is open - if anyone is interested i can post pictures (30x30x30cm)

Just yesterday taking the garbage out i picked up an old PC branded ''Access''. When I noticed it was an AT case (omg) and it didn't even have PS/2 ports (...just one huge DIN..OMG) i took it home and cracked it open. It had a nice Cirrus logic 4mb card running on the VL-bus (!!!). took the , maybe..., 40 mm fan of the equally small heatsink and I find an AMD am486 DX4 100mhz. WOW.

Isn't legacy hardware awesome? It probably had 30-pin SDRAM too.
