Yes, but be aware that applying any type of compound to computer components is almost irreversable as it glues the processor to the heat sink. I would double check that the heatsink you purchase is of the highest quality first.

Yeah, that's what I meant. Sorry for the confusion. To answer your question then, yes, just apply it to the CPU on the top of the chip. Use sparingly so to produce a thin layer when you press the heat sink on the top. You want as thin a layer as possible that covers as much of the chip. Hope that helps.
