Hi.
i5 2500k CPU. I'm gonna re-apply the thermal compound and am getting confused again looking at the web and all the various methods of application. Should I use the Pea, the rice grain, the line, the credit card spread?????
Arctic silver website says to use the 'line' vertically applied for my i5, but others say that it's better to use a credit card and spread a very thin layer just to 'fill in' the microscopic grooves.
Help ....
