installing FIRST pent4 cpu (3gig) and have a question about fan/heatsink. It is a RETAIL version with supplied fan. Cpu is installed in the socket. then I went to install the fan/heatsink and see a small square patch of grey material. I know of paste being used to help transfer heat. DO I HAVE TO PEEL SOMETHING OFF BEFORE INSTALLING THE FAN UNIT?
