All assembled, now I've got "no signal" :( I don't think it's a cpu thing (may be wrong) but I don't know what it is :/

Is that a no signal message on the monitor? Shouldn't be related to the CPU.

You're not meant to use your penis to spread the thermal paste.

And also be sure to put the paste on top of the CPU... :\

This image instantly reminds me of the Roast Chicken w/ Yorkshire Pudding post on reddit.

I'd happily eat that chicken. Also, fuck the pea and corn blobs. There is no blobbing with thermal past ffs. What you do is put the smallest drop of paste on your CPU's surface, and spread it out with a small plastic card or razor if you're feeling frisky. The idea is to have just the thinnest coat on the cpu. If you want to double up, do the same thing to the bottom of your coolers surface, where it will touch the CPU's top. Spread the paste so thin that you can barely see it. Job's a goodun.
