Finally ordered all new computer parts - ready to build. I now have to wait until Monday evening to build it because I'm having it built at a demo for a computer club I'm in here at my university.
My only question is..where is the thermal paste for the processor? I dont see any in the packaging (picture of packaging in my hand). Am I missing something or is there some other type of thermal device built in?
Thanks for any help. Here are the pics
If you can't see the pics here is what you're looking at:
Antec 900 Case
Q6600 Processor
EVGA 8800GTS 640mb Video Card
Crucial Ballistix 2gb memory
Samsung 500GB Harddrive
Samsung DVD
Antec 550 Neo HE PSU
Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L
Are there any tips you can give me for my first build - such as problems you've encountered while building that can you can help me avoid?
Thanks for any help you can give in answering my question or general build tips.
