Hyper 212 evo

[techscythe]

i just ordered my Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO and i see that it comes with thermal compound already i want to know if it is good to use or should i get a mx-4 still.

You won't see too much of a difference - the hyper 212 comes with decent paste.
(The stuff you want to avoid is the white sticky "paste" that looks like glue.)

I couldn't answer your second question without you telling us more about your scenario, but I can say that having two fans on the heatsink, unless they're exactly the same, can cause problems. I'd have an input in the front, and outputs on the top and side.

okay thanks ill just go with another case fan in the back.and i do believe i got that glue like thermal paste you where talking about some one told me it was good but when i got it was hard to spread. but i do hope this will be alot quiet while am gaming instead of this load ass noise sound like my computer ready to fly off to the moon

The Thermal paste that comes with the 212 Evo is good enough.
An aftermarket thermal compound & a second fan would bring down the temps by 2~4C.

The second fan does not make any difference unless you are getting to the thermal limit and need to lower it a couple of degrees. Yes the TIM included from CM is good.
