So this is a general question when you get your laptop, do you keep the stickers or do you remove them? Like the Graphics card, and the CPU sticker?

I keep them, they leave a lot of residue that is hard to remove.

personal choice. But they may leave sticky residue on the PC.

If I removed them, do they really keep unremovable residue? I really don't want to go through the hassle of cleaning them with alcohol and damage my laptop surface since my laptop made out of soft plastic material.

Yeah they do. As we just said. If you choose to remove them (why even bother?) you will need to wipe them down with a lot of alcohol.

You may be able to scrape off the residue if you have a sticker remover tool.

If I did this and bought one from eBay, I would get the AMD Threadripper, their stickers really look cool.:D
