I'm cleaning a Athlon 64 tomorrow with some Articlean, but I'm not sure whether to take the CPU out of the socket or leave it in the socket and clean it there. Also, should I clean the bottom of the heatsink just like the cpu?

Any heatsink removal and replacement tips would be appreciated, first time and all :)
 
How much Arctic silver do I put on a Athlon 64? Some say a pea size in *** centre and then attach the heatsink. Some say spread it around with a credit card. :confused:
