nOOb Basic AMD A8 APU Questions
#1
Hi, I am thinking about building another HTPC using the amd A8-3870K apu...
Couple of general q's

1. It comes with the fan, do I need to buy thermal grease seperate (i've watched some YouTube unboxing videos and didn't see it come with it)

2. Can I get a full size (or a mid) ATX case and put a micro atx Mobo in it? Or do i need a micro-atx case.

Thank You!

Hi accordex,

I have just bought a A8-3870K (great chip), it does come with a Fan & heatsink and it does have thermal grease on the base of the heatsink.

in-case you are interested, the other items I bought were as follows

1. Novatech Vision Media Centre Case £50
2. Crucial 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600Mhz Ballistix Sport Memory Kit £31
3 ASRock A75M-ITX AMD A75 (Socket FM1) Motherboard £75


Kind regards

Bart..
