My NV120 came with a tube of ZEROtherm Thermal Paste. Should I use the supplied paste or use the left over OCZ Ultra 5+ Silver Thermal Compound (from a previous build)? I checked the OCZ, it's the same consistency as when I bought it. Thanks in advance, Phil
it probably won't make a difference. i've got 4 or 5 tubes of thermal paste, all came included with various brands of heatsinks and it is all the exact same stuff.
There is a difference of a few degrees between the various TIM available. http://benchmarkreviews.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=138&Itemid=1
