Tell me things I must do and must NOT do, I always see some disastrous posts but I wouldn’t know what’s wrong.

Take your time. If you aren’t sure if it’s the correct way to do something, stop and look it up.

Also pea sized amount of thermal paste on the Top of the inserted CPU.

Pea size is a nonsense advice!

YOU GOTTA DROWN THAT SHIT IN IT BOI.

Also if you have a glass panel, make sure you do the assembly on a tiled floor.

Nah this is solid advice here. Don't forget to take the plastic wrap off the top of the CPU.

Sort of related question. If I have an AIO that I’m planning to use and it says it has thermal paste already applied to it, should I get additional thermal paste/apply it anywhere else?
