What’s the best way to apply AS5 ?
put as much as a rice grain exactly at the centre, and immediately put the heatsink on the top before any dust settle’s on it
Check out this thread … had posted a video

Do I remove the old TP ?
Thanks guys.
Yeah you’ll have to remove the old TP … quoting Eazy from that thread
The best cleaner for thermal compund is Acetone and the best cleaner to get Acetone off the CPU and Heat Sink is Isopropyl Alcohol
So I can’t just use a tissue ? 
Urr, anyway, rubbing alcohol right ? I didn’t really get that guide. Tiny drop+Twisting heatsink OR tiny drop+blade ?
Tiny drop + twisting.
Using rubbing alcohol to clean up the stock goop and spread a thin layer on the CPU, plus a few tiny drops on the heatsink. With this method, I’ve always got consistent results (as long as it’s mounted right after that).
How much do I put on the CPU ?
