Thermal paste
Do I still need to use thermal paste with a new CPU?
I know the CPUs now come with a thermal pad, so is thermal paste/material still required?

depends on what you are going to do
depends. if it comes with a thermal pad. and you are not going to everclock. then just use the thermal strip. but if you plan to overclock then i would highly recomend quick silver.
