I'm getting a new HSF for christmas, and when I put the new one on, do I put TP over just where the little core is or over the whole thing-a-ma-jig...cpu is in sig...thanks.. :D
 
Also, I've heard horror stories about people going to take ther HSF fan off and the CPU coming out w/ it...would it hurt to run the computer for about a min or so to heat the paste up so the CPU doesnt come out too...or is that a bad idea? Thanks again!
 
Won't hurt it, and it's suggested. If a chip does come out of its socket with the sink, aim a blowdryer where the chip and sink meet to heat up the goo. :D
