How is this HSF? Paste?

[bjc1981]

I am going to buy an Athlon 1800 CPU. I will not be overclocking.

Will the Thermaltake Volcano 6Cu be good enough to cool the CPU properly?

Is thermal paste necessary, such as the Arctic Silver 3 compound?

Thanks for any help!

I just read another post stating that the retail CPU comes with a HSF and Thermal Tape, would I get along just fine with that if I am not overclocking?

Thanks.

yes, should be no problem as long as your not overclocking.

I agree.

*rolls eyes*
even the stock cooler is perfectly adequate if your not overclocking. why do u think its a stock cooler.

your volcano is more than enough.
