Q: what is it used for

A: It's a processor for a computer, but if you need to ask that question. You definitely shouldn't be buying it

Q: is the thermal paste pre-applied?

A: It's under it you have take it off a and place it on top

Q: When will this be back in stock?

A: it will most likely be back in stock in about a month or more but right now it is sold out because of christmas

Q: Is this a processor or a cpu or are they the same? i don't know but i plan to build my custom pc as a beginner. also any tips would be nice.

A: A processor and CPU (central processing unit) are the same thing in desktop PCs. If you are a beginner, I recommend watching some youtube videos on the basics of building custom PCs and the different parts needed. pcpartpicker.com is also a good place to find pre made parts lists, but I still recommend you watch some videos.
