Hi all im look at the Intel e4600 which has fsb 800mhz and socket 775. my motherboard has a socket 775 with 800/400mhz fsb does it work? and does fsb have to match? and sometimes they include a fan with a pre-thermal paste so do i have to add any additional thermal paste?

Refer to your motherboard manual for compatibility issue. Even with the 775, you may not use the new processor. so , refer to the manual.
ojo, if your MB was not designed for the newer Core2Duo CPUs (including the e4600), then you won't be able to use one, as the power circuitry needs a different design from that of the older CPUs. To find out for sure, figure out the model number of your MB and go to the manufacturer's web site to check the CPU compatibility with that MB.
Your picture is too dark to show anything. However, assuming you have a socket 775 CPU with a standard CPU cooler, to release the 4 pins, you need to turn each pin completely in the direction of the little arrow on top of the pin.
