I performed two cleaning cycles, starting with distilled water to clean the pins, then applying 99% isopropyl alcohol under light pressure while making sure the pins stayed straight. Honestly, bending an AM4 pin proved tougher than expected based on my experience. After cleaning, I let it rest for about seven hours before reinserting the 3900x into the socket. It worked flawlessly and started up without any problems. I also conducted a stress test using AIDA64, and everything seems stable so far. The photos taken right after cleaning are included—just note the slight moisture that dried off.
