It is definitely best to be cautious, and it sounds like you need to be!
There are definitely better brands of thermal paste on the market, that many people swear by. I am using that fairly generic stuff in mine, but if you want to spend some more $, look for Arctic Silver.
As far as the metal bolts... mine are just from Home Depot. I don't recall the size, as they were just laying around from another project, but perhpas take the plastic pin with you to size it up when you're shopping. Also make sure you have some paper motherboard washers to isolate them from the bottom of the board.
Not sure what else you can do... That is a warm room temperature, but sounds like you have to deal with that! |
