[QUOTE="Lasherž, post: 8726763, member: 679555"] Cooler paste is only important for overclocking and that's a whole other thing. The hardest part of (doing) that (right) is in overclocking ram. It takes a patience that can only be obtained by having another working computer lol. You can run silicon hot for a long time, it's just not recommended. My GPU failed due to long term heat because EVGA decided silence was more important than the longevity of their chip, it still took 2 and a half years. Edit: Important as in compared to the default paste that's already on the supplied CPU heatsink. It's important all the time if you have nothing between the CPU and the heatsink. [/QUOTE]
