Is the thermal paste that comes with an i7 6700k good enough?

Hey guys,

Along with upgrading my entire rig I decided to upgrade from an i7 2600k to a i7 6700k.

My question is to whether the standard thermal paste on the chip will be good enough? I have a h60 corsair cooler back from 2011 with idle temps at around 29 celsius so I think for upgrading my cooler i'm fine as well?

Many Thanks

Middles

There is no standard thermal paste nor a stock cooler with the i7 6700k.. Just a heads up :)

You'll have to buy thermal paste
