Adding a second CPU.

[samuri1983]

Hi eveybody I and upgrading my system at the moment. A second CPU more RAM and better GPU. My second GPU just arrived today but it didnt have any thermal paste for between it and the heatsink. Is there any brand or particular paste that is better than most as I dont want to mess up installing it. Thanks

I can't work out what you're adding, a new CPU or a new GPU.

Sorry I am adding both but it is my second CPU an Intel Xeon 5060 3.20GHz that came today that I want to install but no thermal paste came with it. I was wondering is there any paste that is better than the rest.

Arctic Silver 5 is still pretty good product for the $$$.

Really any thermal paste would work, but I tend to use Arctic Silver. For no other reason than it is what the store nearest to me sells.
