Noobish question :)

Hopefully getting my new pc soon.

I will hopefully be watercooling it, the CPU, NB (Blitz Formula) and GPU. This will be my first watercooling setup.

I will probably end up with a EK Fullcover 8800GTX block for the GTX, my question is what do i put on the RAM chips etc? Will normal thermal paste work, or will it have to be pads?

Going to get Arctic Cooling's MX-2, will that do the job for the GPU, RAM etc? I hope it'll be safer as im likely to screw something up as usual, so as it's non-conductive i should be good.
 
EK's block is a fullcover block that makes contact with the RAM BGAs, so all you need is a little thermal paste.

the MX-2 will work wonders.
 
mx-2 really that good ??? better than AS5 ? im still waiting for my shipment with mx-2 to arrive ;)
 
i have the ek it comes with the pads for the small chips and you still need goo for the bigger ones

point a few led lights at the ek also it makes it light up nice
