    CPUs don't arrive with paste on them - some coolers do, especially the Intel stock coolers, but it may have already been used.

    It's always worth keeping a tube of TIM around, and it doesn't cost much.

    There should be a "Thanks" button on the bottom left of a post, you should be able to use it from 15 posts and you seem to have just crossed the 100 mark:
