Does h50 come with paste?

Question in title.... If not what to get?

Paste is pre-applied and it's pretty good. However, the H50 can be fiddly to install so have some other paste to hand if you end up wrecking the pre-applied stuff.

I found the H-50 paste to be very good

Yeah it comes with shin-etsu paste pre applied which is meant to be very good. I certainly found it to be better than when using other thermal pastes.
