Does AS3 thermal paste void Intels warranty?

[noonhigher]

If it does I dont think I'll do it because I'm to scared on a new P4 2.8 800fsb! semi-newbie

Note this cpu currently comes with a pad unlike some older p4's (423-pins have paste and 478's have pads)

I just love answering my own questions! lol!

From Intels web site->

Thermal Interface Material Replacement for Fan Heatsink
Thermal interface material is required for proper heat transfer from the processor to the fan heatsink. The boxed Intel Pentium 4 processor will have thermal interface material attached to the bottom of the heatsink or will be supplied with thermal interface material included in an applicator.


Thermal Interface Material Attached to the Heatsink
Intel does not recommend the removal of the thermal interface material located on the bottom of the boxed processor fan heatsink. Removal of this material may cause damage to the processor and will void the boxed processor warranty. If you must remove and re-use the fan heatsink, it will require replacement. Also, if the thermal interface material is at all damaged, you must also replace the fan heatsink. Contact Intel Customer Support to receive a fan heatsink.
Thermal Interface Material in an Applicator
Using the boxed processor without properly applying the included thermal interface material may cause damage to the processor and will void the boxed processor warranty. If you must remove and re-use the fan heatsink, a new application of thermal interface material is required. Contact Intel Customer Support to receive additional thermal interface material in an applicator.

Ok so this means to me anyways remove the pad use the paste if it goes bad order new pad clean it up put it on and warranty is covered? right? aye?
