The forum guide shows quite a bit spread over the entire heat spreader of the cpu. However, the arctic silver guide online tells me to put a really small amount in the middle (pea-sized) and then just attach the heatsink (spreading it by pushing it down).
I've tried twice now and my cpu temp in bios is 50 degrees which is too high. So what is the right way to go?
(BTW, I'm working with amd athlon 64 X2 and its stock heatsink)
