It did not come with a separate tube but there was thermal compound already applied to the heat sink/fan that comes with the CPU. I did not know that either so I bought thermal compound that I did not end up using.

This comes with the heat sink paste already applied. You can easily pick up a tube separately if you feel you might need it in the future, but this item does not come with a separate tube of it.

The unit I purchased through ETARATECH for $55 did not come with a fan. I used the fan assembly from my old cpu. If this is the route you take, don't forget to order a thermal paste kit, about $12, which comes with a cleaning solution and a tube of thermal paste. It was easy to apply. Be sure to thoroughly clean your old heat sink and fan assembly of dust and other debris before reassembly. Qtips, windex and a vacuum cleaner should do the trick for this job.

Yes... but I'd recommend replacing it. The thermal paste is on the stock cooler. It comes in three thick bands with gaps in between them. I'd recommend at least spreading these out to cover the entire CPU before installing. I removed the stock paste completely and went with my own application to ensure even coverage.

Thankfully the thermal compound is not pre applied on the heatsink. It comes in a little plastic sleeve, seperatly. I would definitely apply the artic silver 5 compound instead of what comes with the heatsink. By the way this closed loop cooler is AWESOME. Lemme know if you have any other questions about it.

Yes it does. It's more than enough for my CPU and i am gamer. You will need some Thermal Paste. Arctic Silver Paste is outstanding for performance.

No, it comes with thermal paste on the copper block for you. All you do is take the little plastic cover off of it, plop it down on your CPU, and then do the appropriate mounting procedures for your particular CPU.

It depends on the seller, if you buy new it will come with a stock cooler and pre-applied thermal paste on the cooler.

Yes it comes with a heat sink & fan. They are adequate for normal use. However if you intend to overclock I would recommend an upgrade to at least a heat-pipe type of cpu cooler.

Yes, this comes with a small heatsink and an OEM cooling fan. You have to move it out of the way to get the chip out of the package.

Yes, it comes with thermal paste on it. If you're like me though you'll want to have a backup tube of the stuff handy, as I wasn't satisfied with the way I had installed it the first time and had to do some fiddling to get it just right. A small tube is cheap and handy to have around.

The heatsink has some on it already but it does not come with a separate tube of paste.

Yes it does come with pre-applied thermal paste on the sink with fan included. you can always clean it off and use your own thermal paste but why? the cooling is sufficient. under heavy load when i play games, it never goes over 60C. just make sure your case has good cooling and/or airflow. it may get hotter if u do things such as 3d editing and etc in which others have noted so watch out for that. just use HWMonitor to monitor your temps. it's a free software.

Yes, It comes with a stock cooler with thermal paste pre-applied. All you have to do is simply snap the cooler on place and plug it in. very simple.

Yes. I find it funny that people say get a Cooler Master heatsink when in fact, the cooler that comes with this CPU is made by Cooler Master, but it seems to have a small cheap fan. I upgraded to a larger fan.

It comes with a heatsink and fan with thermal paste already applied.Depending on how much you want to push your processor, I would recommend finding a better heatsink since the one included is merely 'adequate' for normal uses. Mine has pretty high temps with even small overclocking with the stock cooler.

yes intel heatsink with fan is included. Though you got to buy thermal paste, apply some on the cpu die before attach the heatsink fan provided.

Nope it will come in a little envelope sealed with bubble wrap . No Heatsink included well that's what I got with my purchase.
