How are people actually applying Arctic Silver 5 on their Pentiums? The intructions on the AS5 site didnt mentioning spreading the AS5 over the heatspreader but instead just to put a dab on the center and just mush the heatsink on it. It this how you are doing it? I've been spreading it out this whole time and I'm curious if I've been doing it wrong all this time.

If your spreading a thin layer and when you press it, it doesn't leak over, I'm sure its fine. The dot in the middle just ensures that none of it goops out.
