[SOLVED] Pre Applied Thermal Paste or Arctic Silver?

[Kid Cali]

I have a Cooler Master i30 which has thermal paste pre applied. Will I benefit from removing it and using arctic silver?

A couple of degrees at most.
Use the preapplied until you need to redo it.

you might a degree or two but you would be wasting perfectly good paste. save the arctic silver until you need to change in a year or two.
