ok I am probably going to be upgrading in the next few weeks or next month to a core 2 duo processor,
my mobo is this
(http://www.intel.com/cd/channel/reseller/asmo-na/eng/products/desktop/bdb/d945gcl/feature/index.htm)
I want to get this!
(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115206)
and I'm sure I'm going to need some thermal paste,
(I don't know what paste to get does this work?
(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835200052)
Um the question I have is how to install this? Do I just remove the old processor put the new one in and apply thermal paste to the top of it and put the new heat sink on? how much paste do i put n the processor?
will i have to do any thing in the bios once I put the new processor on? or can i just start up the pc and hope it works?
Okay next question I am going to usehe EVGa step up program and step up from my 9800Gt 512MB to an EVGA GTX 260 896MB DDR 3 card woot cant wait!!!

i know its minimum power requirements are at least a 500 Watt power supply I only have a 450 Watt, I want at least a 550 watt or 600Watt power supply any to 6 pin connector,(i know that it comes with those other cables that plug into the GPU and into the power supply it has to be ATX Can someone please recommend me a good power supply? maybe from Egg or Tiger? Thanks
Bestbuy has this one-

But I'm sure one for a cheaper price could be found online right?
Thanks for all the help
