Well it is a coolermaster case, so so long as it is a coolermaster unit, it should be alright :)

If it is the stock heatsink, it comes with pre-applied thermal paste, but it isn't very good.

If you aren't overclocking, it will be alright, but if you do in the future, you will be better off getting thermal paste and a new heatsink, because the stock ones from both Intel and AMD are crap

if this is the first time youve seen this stop error screen,restart ure computer.if this screen appears again follow these steps.
check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed.if this is a new installation,ask ure hardware or software manufacturer for any updates u mite need.

if problem continues disable or remove any new hardware or software.disable bios memory options such as caching or shadowing.if u need to use safe mode to remove or disable compnents restart ure computer.press f8 to select advance startup options and then select safe mode.
