    Hi Everyone

    Been watching the last couple of months,here is the machine I put together.
    Have some questions

    1 As a Canadian order would that warranty I took be considered the full coverage I understand I pay shipping back to Sager if any problems.

    2 Do they apply the Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound or do I?

    3 Any other options I should do?

    Thank you for your time and input
