I've been using the Alpha PAL8045 for around 2 years and it has since collected much dust on its pins. Now I have some time to spare and would like to do a cleaning for the dirty heatsink, is it possible to use water?
Not sure whether it's the hotter weather, my 1700+ overclocked to 2.2GHz 1.65V is idling 52C~53C with a case temp of 35C (All temps from 8RDA sensors), room temp around 29C to 30C.
Anyone cleaned heatsinks before? Will it do any damage to it? Thanks a lot!
