enough?

Should be enough! (OPTIONAL: You could use the tip of a card to spread the paste evenly just to be safe!  After that, you should be able to put your cooler on top!)

 

P.S. You got one f***ing sexy build there! I would of waited for the 1080Ti though!

 

Happy Gaming!

Good luck and have fun with looping! Doesn't matter if the parts are new or not as long as it still has life in it!
