Is there a good place to go that shows some pictures of what a CPU should look like w/ thermal paste applied? I tend to be one of these individuals that when it comes to anything that involves pastes in a tube, I use either too much or too little.
I don't want to have to disassemble the PC I am building multiple times to apply more or remove excess paste. The directions I have been reading from building instructions on multiple sites follows along the lines of "apply thermal paste but not too much for it may cause problems with your CPU." Do I just put a dot of it on the CPU (AMD ATHLON XP) and if so, on which part??
I am recieving my bundle of goodies from NEWEGG.COM today with my cpu, ABIT AN7 Mobo, and Athlon XP3200+ cpu with aftermarket heatsink and fan. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
