Does this CPU come with CPU heat transfer grease preapplied or in a tube?

Its preapplied. I was about to apply thermal paste i bought from best buy when i realized there was already some on it.

When you purchase this item it comes with its own heatsink, this heatsink has thermal paste already applied to it. If you want to use a different, higher grade heatsink, you will need to purchase your own thermal paste.

Box SKU Numbers as in this AMD CPU "HDZ955FBGMBOX"- see "BOX" at the end- virtually always come with a heat sink. This CPU in particular DOES INCLUDE a heatsink, but its fan is loud. Many people opt for a higher performance after market CPU Heatsink and Fan. Doing so can prolong the life of the CPU. There are also high quality low-profile Heatsink/fan (very compact and quiet too) that are better than the included "stock" version. Stock Heatsinks come with pre-applied thermal compound, but watch out... The stock Thermal Compound is often the adhesive type which can make removing the stock heatsink difficult- Removal Tip: do so when its still warm/hot from being on and use a small back and forth twisting motion to loosen it before pulling up, or you may pull the CPU out of its socket.

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.

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.

It is. It comes with a CPU cooler (heatsink+fan) which has a square of thermal compound pre-applied. I used a third party CPU Cooler though (Hyper 212 Evo) with Arctic Silver 5, though.

Yes. It comes with a small fan and thermal Paste which didn't work well. I bought a larger fan and a thermal gel kit to clean off the paste and thermal gel to apply between the and the processor.

Heat sinks and fans are usually sold separately from CPUs. Don't expect either to be included unless the description clearly says so. Mine came as CPU only.

Yes, the fan is pre-attached to the heat-sink and includes pre-applied thermal paste. However, I would recommend an aftermarket cooler for over clocking.

Mine came with a small packet of thermal paste. It was enough to try twice or so to get a good seal on the processor.

Comes with the stock cooler, no thermal paste. If you are going to overclock I recommend upgrading the 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.

The fluid is inside the unit with maybe some residual fluid in the hoses for the first second or so. When powered up, the cooled fluid is pumped through the hoses to the cooling plate. Thermodynamics take over allowing the thermal paste to transfer heat from the cpu to the plate and the liquid removes removes the heat from the plate. The heated liquid is carried to the radiator to drop off the heat, cool off and continue the process again. You only need about a pea-sized amount of thermal paste and the plate presses it so no other smearing is needed.

Of course, most processors come with the paste already on it but there are better pastes to be bought if you find heat being a problem.

Some come pre applied to the heatsink so its not needed to buy anymore. unless you wish to of course

It comes with a heatsink/fan with thermal paste already on it. Just place the fan assembly on top of the microprocessor and hook the 4 hold owns to your motherboard.

Yes it's come with heatsink n fan and ready gel on the bottom hook to the cpu
