[SOLVED] Thermal paste

[dhorsburgh1]

Hey,

I am going to delid my CPU. When I installed my CPU liquid cooler it had pre applied thermal paste on it. So when I take the cooler off the delid the CPU, will I need to clean and reapply the thermal paste on the cooler or will it still be good just to plant straight back on top.

Thanks

Of course after I have put the lid back on the CPU
