Of course... BUT make sure you check because certain coolers are only compatible with certain CPU's...

Ie: the Volcano 9 ONLY works with AMD Athlons, etc.....

Follow directions with the product EXACTLY! use a quality TIM and have fun.

Post specs of your system and I am sure we can come up with some suggestions...

yes ,you can clean the old compount with, cleaning benzine(dunno how its called in english) or thinner or something :p,
the artic silver is a great improvement, can differ up to 3-5 degrees(centigrade)
