Subject: thermal paste replacement
----------
It depends on the CPU specifications you have, if you have a CPU that runs hot you need the best paste you can afford, if you have a CPU that doesn't you can go for a cheaper paste. And don't be tempted by the big tubes of paste, you only use a small pea size amount put on the center of the CPU, when the cooler is then attached, the mounting pressure of the cooler squashes the paste evenly over the top of the CPU. This application will last years, the only time you will ever need a big tube of paste is if your a builder putting together hundreds of computers, for the everyday person a small tube will last you years.
