No, it's pre-applied.

Still, you should probably ghet a tube for emergencies. :)

I use & recommend this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835118055



I can only get artic mx4 or artic 5 those are the ones ppl sell here

This.

If you ever have to take the cooler off for whatever reason, you don't want to put it back on with the old paste. Fully clean it off and reapply some new stuff.



One question if I remove and want to re apply, the paste goes on the CPU or on the h100?

On the cpu, look up some videos. Basically you put a small pea size dab on the middle of the cpu and lower the cooler onto it in one shot. Once you get it down do not lift it back up or you'll have to reapply. Also some videos show people spreading paste on and all this nonsense, do not do that.

Arctic 5 is pretty good stuff, i use it myself. Idk about the mx4

Yeah i saw vĂ­deos using it on the CPU but now that I saw the h100 had it I thought I could use it there but it's good to know

I also thought spreading it was the way to do it like the video someone posted in here.

I'll be doing some questions when I build it tomorrow lol
Maybe some will be stupid questions but I rather ask and learn :)

I'd take it out, just the standoffs and screws should be fine
