Why?
Because it's better to get ass-raped by the so-called PC brands like HP, Acer, Dell, etc. who sell unreliable crap at an unreasonable price.

You totally misunderstood his post. Please read it again.
I just bought a AMD 955

now I just need the OS

(which someone is suppose to give to me

)
CPU is here and installed

, but I think I may have a problem

there appears to be some dust on the thermal paste is that going to be a problem? A quick answer would be appreciated

How much dust?
Is the paste already applied? Or are you going to apply it?
Best would be to clean it.
