to wait or simply repaste?

[edved]

I got the slackr q6600 today but, I still have to wait for the Thermaltake cooling fan. I'm wondering whether I should go ahead and install the cpu with the stock cooling fan now?Is it a pain in the a** taking the paste off? Or, should I simply wait until I get the thermaltake fan?

just use the purest isopropyl alcohol you can find to clean it and it isn't too difficult.

You'll have to take out the motherboard again, which sucks ass, wait.
