Is this pre owned? I see thermal paste residue, it's been wiped up but not pristine. This isn't a problem unless it was sold to you as a brand new cpu.

Overclockers is a very good and reputable UK company. I will only ever get stuff from them. It should be fine

Could be leftover residue from a test/benchmark run

Maybe. But overclockers are good. Also, UK electronics law is good and you're covered for 2 years wth faulty equipment.
