You dont need to cover the entire chip, just the core.

I personally, take a small dab on my finger, and spread it out over the heatsink, starting at center, circular motions until its just a small glaze over it, then I do the same for the core itself of the CPU.

DO IT LIKE THAT, THATS HOW MOST PEOPLE DO IT.

Do it whichever way you want,it's a P4.They don't overheat,you don't have much to worry about.If you don't like teh results of one way,do it another.

well, from extremeoverclocking.com, most ppl with my mobo and hs and fan end up in the 20s for idle and 30s to low 40s for load, and that's after ocing the thing to 3.5 and 3.6! wow! i've decided to try the spreading thin layer on both 1st. if that don't work for some reason, i'll switch. thanks guys!

btw, any suggestions anyone got for this new system? wat ram timings do u guys recommend? i'm looking at sticking with stock till i really need to oc the ram. any suggestions?

Haha, they dont over heat?

Take off the heatsink bud, then turn on your computer and post that.

I was joking. They don&#39;t overheat the way that an AMD does.My XP2200+ took approximately 5 seconds to burn up.The only benefit,inmy eyes to owning a Pentium processor is the fact that they just freeze up when the fan quits.

As opposed to a Pentium 4, which takes how long to burn up without a processor fan or heatsink?

[johnboy27]

Have a little read here and tell me if his processor will survive if the heatsink install goes bad??
