I was reading into it a bit, and looking inside the tower, there are wires leading from the PSU underneath the CPU itself and out to the hard drives. I read one person so it's best to cut the wires off the PSU and take it out that way. They said the long way would be to take the CPU out completely then reapply all the thermal paste. I really would rather not cut them or remove the CPU honestly
