Am I understanding correctly that you put the paste on top of the plastic that's covering the CPU? 😁 Pretty funny, heh

Do cpu's come with a cover sticker, now? They never used to.

Anyhow, I believe by the looks of it that OP left the protective sticker on their cooler side, and not their cpu side.

This is some barely-passive passive-aggressive nit-picking. 😛

Well I though you wanted to understand correctly? Lol

I hate it when people take discussion as aggression.

What was being discussed? Please, I love discussing.

[–] victorz -2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I understood it fine. I just said:

the plastic that's covering the CPU,

rather than,

the ~~plastic~~ protective sticker on their ~~CPU~~ cooler side, and not their cpu side

Yours is marginally more correct, but mine is pragmatically the same thing. Come on, now. :⁠-⁠P

Hey, man. You were the one that asked for clarification. You're starting to complain.

[–] victorz 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Be a little pragmatic for god's sake. What I said was basically the same thing. They left a plastic cover on their CPU and they put the paste on that. Dead simple. You could've just said yes, to an already rhetorical question by the way.

Lol. Dude; just stop. You're an odd duck.
