I ordered a q6600 chip and it arrived with a fan included in the box. The fan has three spots of what looks like thermal paste on the copper heat transfer pad. Is that a pre-installed thermal paste (aka pad) or do I need to add more paste?

Sorry for the stupid question but it would be even more ignorant of me NOT to ask and screw up the chip by doing the wrong thing.
