Heatsink installation
I have the new Sempron and motherboard because I already ordered it three
days ago, but here's my question. My $40 Zalman heatsink instructions say to spread the thermal paste on the CPU. I thought you were supposed to just put a dab of it on on these CPU's and the pressure of the heatsink would spread out the paste. Is this correct or should I follow the directions and go ahead and spread the paste? Would it hurt anything if I spread the paste? Thanks.
