Hi, as you can see I'm new to the forum. My question may seem fairly basic, but I'm unsure as to what to do, so I need your input. I have a server at home that currently has an Intel XEON 3.4GHz processor installed. It has the capacity for a second one, which I already have. My question is when install the second CPU do I need to use a thermal compound or can I get away without having to use it?
