I'm going to use the Intel stock cooler with my i7-920 (at least for the time being) & am in a quandry about wether to apply thermal paste to the cpu.
I notice the bottom of the stock cooler has 3 neat lines of paste already applied by the factory.
Should I put some on the cpu also or just slap the cooler on & use the factory stuff?
In other words, one surface or both?
