CPU and fan
Hello im thinking of buying this 2.4 ghz p4 cpu. It has no fan with it it says. So i need to buy a fan? Im stuck on what fan i need to buy. I have found one it says its for p4 cpus, socket 478. Which sounds right. The fan is called ARCTIC COOLING CPU FAN SUPER SILENT 4 PRO TC ( P4 ) Is that all i need for the CPU once i have a fan for it, and the cpu?
Matt. |

You will need thermal compound that is put on the die of the CPU before installing the HSU. The HSU may come the compound, if not buy a tube. And you only need a dab the size of a grain of rice. Then spread it over the die with piece of plastic.
