I just bought a s754 venice from the forums here and (long story, terrible seller) the CPU came with thermal paste all over the bottom pins.
I did my best to get it off but several of the pins were already bent and I didn't want to risk fatiguing them further.
My question is more of a prompt to imagination on your part. I am curious why and how someone would ever get thermal paste on the bottom of a fairly new CPU (venice s754s aren't THAT old).
