burn type spot in Intel CPU

[Amzad]

When I opened it to change the cooler, I saw that under my processor, there was a black spot like this in the picture below.  My computer is one year old, I didn't overclock it, didn't do any heavy work.just coding,  browsing,  youtube do this type of  work.  And still my computer works fine.  I don't see any problem.

 

1. My question is what is this dark spot ?

2.Is it harmful to my computer?

 Is there any reason to worry about this????

3.Many say to clean with isopropyl alcohol.but because I already assemble  my computer. Should I open my computer then clean cpu?????

use eyeglass cleaning cloth and isopropyl alcohol and if it goes away it was just maybe you touched it during install and it tarnished the metal over time

 My question is what is this dark spot ?

Is it harmful to my computer?

 Is there any reason to worry about this thing?Because this is what I will use for 4,5 years.  It is not possible for me to buy another computer before this

Did you buy the CPU used? It looks like that area of the CPU got pretty hot leading to discoloration of the pads. 

Try removing it with isopropyl alcohol and a Q-Tip(earbuds).

How does the socket look? Did you drop thermal paste or any cleaner in it?

i cant find a pin diagram for 12th gen but if it is even close to the same as older gens, that region of pins has nothing that would be capable of pulling any power to heat up
it is also far from the die. 
 

I would simply ignore it

Here’s a 12th that’s been pulling to much power for reference

Not necessarily - These pads/areas can discolor over time too with use - I've seen it before.
It's not enough to indicate an actual problem "Per Sae", more like maybe the chip had a little too much voltage going to it but not enough to hurt it.

If the chip was really affected in a bad way you'd know it without having to wonder about it. 

You can also try some acetone or Brasso used with paper towels and see if that woudn't help clean some of it.

I bought brand new cpu...

Socket is fine...

I Don't drop thermal peste or anything

Is there any chance of increasing this?

Many say to clean with isopropyl alcohol.but I already assemble  my computer. Should I open my computer then clean cpu.

I legit can't see what you're talking about. Can you circle it in MS paint or something?

It'll probably be fine. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

 

If you had a 7800x3D it would be one thing, but since that pc is a year old it wouldn't be that. Pretty sure there's no worry of any other CPUs out there burning up in a literal sense.

@Amzad I have merged your 2 threads together surrounding this question. No need to make a new thread when you have an active one already going with conversation on-going.

I am afraid of it.  If it is harmful for pc.

I'd recommend searching the interwebs for both your CPU and motherboard to see if there's any reported cases of something happening to them.

I really got no clue. That page doesn't really give a whole lot of info.

 

Honestly I say just relax, and if you're not having any issues with your system then just leave things as they are. If something goes wrong, that's what RMAs are for.
