Hi,
Just wondering, I'm wanting to purchase Noctua NT-H1 thermal paste and reading online it says that you must apply a pea size dot on the cpu and then twist the heatsink/cooler ontop of the CPU before screwing it in.
Since I have a liquid cooler (corsair H100i), this is not possible because the stand off holes will stop me from twisting the block. Does this matter that this isn't possible? Is it enough to just press my block against the cpu and screw it in without testing or is this method of application necessary for this type of thermal paste meaning I should purchase another.
Please help.
Thanks!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
