I recently purchased all the components for my new pc (first time build :) ) and while i was searching for some combo deals or freebies, i stumbled along the phenom ii 965 and Tuniq Tx2 compound, basically free compound, so what i wanted to know was, would the stock compound from the heatsink and fan work just as fine as the Tuniq Tx2? i DONT plan to OVERCLOCK
Like, which would allow for, example, longer lasting cpu
It seems better to use brand compound vs stock compound.
Thanks in Advance :hello:

The stock compound is fine! If you ever overclock then an aftermarket cooler is recommended/needed the paste itself is not going to do the trick alone.
