Hello Toms,
I recently built a Rig That I plan to use for Gaming. I have had some second thoughts about the Thermal paste I used to seat the Cooler on the CPU. The Cooler is an Antec H2O 920 and the CPU is an i5 3570k. I feel like I may have cheated myself on the Paste. I went to RadioShack. I know I know!!!! Yes RADIOSHACK and picked up some silicone based Thermal paste. It came in a small white tube with an orange label on it. After a little research I noticed most high end thermal paste is metallic. The thermal paste I used was white. Do you think this may be an issue I need to correct, and if so can you guys recommend something for me? Thanks in advance guys!!!
