ok so i am trying to remove CPU FROM YM MOBO AND PUT IN ANOTHER ONE. I have tried to simply pull it out from the sides and it doesnt come out, what do i do to get it out. yes, the retention bar is raised
how would it be thermal paste, the themal paste goes on top of the cpu between it and the heatsink not under in the socket. I tried to pry it out with an xacto and it chipped the edge, not good
