Is 1.5 grams enough to apply to CPU and GPU cores?

Yes. More than enough. I barely used a fraction of the contents in my case. Just make sure you use the recommended cleaning and application method for your CPU and GPU. I used the rice grain method for my CPU and the "pea" method for my GPU. There are a bunch of "how to" videos on YouTube that show how its done. Also the material is very thick and viscous so before application wrap the tube in plastic warap and let it sit in a cup of hot water to help soften the material.

You use a dab about the size of half of a normal pea. The 1.5 gram size will do about 10 cpu's. Hope this helps.

The 1.5g tube will definitely have enough to paste 2 jobs. You only need a little bit spread very thin between the processor and the cooling element

Depends on the rest of your hardware. Not enough ram or FSB speed and the core will mean nothing.

It depends on the processor and memory. The better the processor, the more the memory, the higher the number.

Make sure your D-Core is at least 2.4 GHz. That's part of the requirements to run it.

depends on other hardware, graphics card, number of harddrives etc. google "psu calculator" and compute your power needs

Thank You.12% only. The Atom CPU apparently has pretty decent graphic processing capability. Best Regards,

no problems at all. most of the newer cpu's and gpu's don't require as much power as some of the older stuff, so you'll have plenty of overhead.

The stock thermal paste on the heatsink should be fine for almost anything unless you're planning on overclocking your CPU or doing some over the top gaming setup. If you do want to use a different thermal paste, check out :Arctic Silver 5 High-Density Polysynthetic Silver Thermal Compound, 3.5 Grams

You can overclock graphics cards. But not CPUs. However if you have intel turbo boost that WILL work so keep that in mind

I'm running Calkulin+Clemsyn 1.5ghz Combo V6. It's Froyo, but everything works, including hardware acceleration, and it's wicked fast. I did downclock mine from the 1.5GHz to 1.4GHZ as my gtab's CPU couldn't handle it.

Yes. Best thermal compound for all CPU and heatsinks. Heat transfer is super great.

Yes, as long as you're using only a single GPU and are not running an SLI build.

Depends. Do what everyone here says and pair it with a good GPU - I am using an EVGA 670 FTW and have had no trouble with any game maxed out. The only issue you may run into, and it is slight, many games are coded to use 1,2, or 4 cores. The 8350 is not as peppy in regards to single-core tasks. It's like having a V-8 engine but only being able to use 1 or 2 cylinders. To find out which games can take full advantage of all 8 cores, my suggestion would be to Google "(game name) CPU Core Usage" or something like that. Hope that helps.

It's on the supported CPU list: http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=2842

The power needed for the CPU should also be considered. I read somewhere that MSI recommended 500 watts for a system with 1 card. Since you are overclocking the CPU?, and the GPU?, I would recommend a 850 watt PSU at a minimum just to be safe and avoid power issues. Have fun!

It varies on what else you have installed. like if this will be your only graphics card, then it should be enough, but only barely.
