When I open it up, there is a fan and a processor and they both look dry. No gel applied or included in the box.

Just to be clear, there's just smooth, bare metal on the heat sink?

You can probably just borrow your friend's stuff again.  It doesn't take much, so those little tubes can go a long way.

^^Looks like a little rubber pad when viewed up close.


^^smooth brushed metal with some text


^^The retail box that it came in. Only other thing in the box besides the plastic case the fan and CPU cam in was the instruction booklet
BlackNMild2k1:
What does it mean if I can't get my current fan to disconnect from my current CPU?
Its almost like its glued together.
UltimatePartyBear:
It pretty much is glued together by the solidified thermal grease.
BlackNMild2k1:
how do I get it loose without destroying it?


is this why people use more expensive thermal grease?
