Thinking out loud (as usual)
If you can heat up your system to 70°C (equals the computer is turned off and the “cooler is isn’t mounted ) then why don’t go to 72°C (assuming it’s NOT a sealed loop), just do it quickly... The proteins the cells in the system will burst (don’t know the English word for kuagulera), but the plastic wont be affected that much if you are lucky due to the low heat transference in plastics...
Just remember that many spores will survive this (they are meant to survive fires)...
