ohh YES. always use a HSF with a Athlon.

YES! You need to buy a HSF unit. It will fry in no time if you do not put one on and you will be sad. 🙁

Go get yourself some Arctic silverII as well. Got mine from ebay for $7 including shipping. Tube should last u a lifetime.

Do I really need Artic silver or can I just put the hsf in without it?

You should definetly use some thermal grease with the HSF combo...I mean why not? Why would you want to risk burning up a new chip?
