Yep, great step by step process, though the review doesn't make mention that some coolers require installation of a backplate. Might want to include that tidbit, just so people know.

OT: Retro, bring back the dj'ing avvy

Questions:
1. I hear that sandwich bag over finger to spread the paste works well. When working on mine, should I do this? E6400 C2D.
2. How much Isoprop do I need? I've got a small vial from work, about 1oz of it. I daresay its enough, but can someone confirm?
3. Ecloths are suitable to wipe/clean with right?
