Hi guys,
Building my PC and i am wondering how i should apply my arctic mx-3 paste. I have a i5 - 760 and a Cooler master hyper 212 plus. I've heard of putting a small amount on top of the cpu then placing the heatsink down but in the instructions for the hyper 212 plus it says to put some paste on the bottom of the heatsink. Should i put a small dot on the cpu AND some on the heatsink?
