I'm attempting to build my first video editing computer, and my ? is do I need to apply thermal paste to the i7 920 or does the stock fan come pre-applied?

Thanks for the info. I hear it can be a nerve racking experience installing the cpu and I want to do it right of course the first time, so I thought I would ask for some assistance. The pre applied produce is 3 little gobbs, would I need to add some to that and spread it out evenly?? With a lint free cloth of course.
