Sure, I can help with that. For AMD CPUs like your Ryzen 5 5600, it's generally recommended to use a thin layer of thermal paste applied evenly across the CPU die. You can either use a specialized thermal paste or follow the rice grain method by gently spreading it with a brush. The pump method is fine for basic installation, but for better performance and reliability, opting for a proper paste application is best.

I placed it perfectly in the middle with plenty of paste to cover, allowing it to expand.
