Hi there.
Am in the process of building a new rig (1st time) and have two questions on my mind.
1 - My mobo is an 'ASUS P5KC AiLifestyle Series iP35 Socket' and am wondering will I need rubber washers for the screws to screw it to the case or does this motherboard have the little bits of metal that ground the screws/current/whatever around the screw holes (new to this so bare with me)
2 - How do you know how much thermal paste to apply, im a little worried. Are there any sort of guides or indications as to how much to apply. And also, should you spread it or just put a dollop on in the middle and leave it.
Cheers
- Will
