It's been a while since I assembled a top-tier rig. I'm eyeing a TR 3960x as soon as possible and planning to shop on newegg.com. I'm looking for the highest quality thermal paste right now—no sure thing what works best these days. I managed to grab some liquid metal, but I hesitated using it because of the risk of leaks and messy situations.
