## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would this be a suitable upgrade for my sony all-in- one desktop pc which currently has a core i3-2310 cpu @ 2.10 ghz. and is it easy to fit.**
A: NO because your old CPU does not use the LGA1200 pin specification like the i5-10400
It is LGA 1155 so the pins don't match
It will not work

**Q: Does it come with thermal paste?**
A: You will not need thermal paste. The heatsink and fan assembly has the required thermal coating already. Just follow carefully the instructions provided.

**Q: How many cores does it have? It says there are 6 but as far as i know there are 10 cores on the 12600k, please someone tell me**
A: Yes, there are 10 (6 + 4) on the 12600K

**Q: Hey just bought this. does it come with cooler and paste included ? (just so i know to pop out and buy them if not)**
A: No sorry the CPU does not come with a cooler or paste. I recommend Noctua NH-D15S chromaxblack, Premium Dual-Tower CPU Cooler with NF-A15 PWM. a 140mm Fan and quality paste is included. It isn’t cheap or small but it is very quiet and seems to do its job well.
