    Oh you actually bothered
    Well, now I'm kinda bummed out
    Should try to get rid of it since I now have an AM3+ board... so could go for an upgrade I guess.

    edit: thermal paste is the one that was shipped with the cooler, applied thinly so that it covers the heatspreader but it's still "visible" under it... at least that's how I thought it's done.

    Since this thread has become pretty general, how about an AM3+ CPU recommendation?
