No dont apply thermal paste on PCH like the picture only the cpu , it's designed to operate at a lower temperature than the CPU. Applying thermal paste can thermally connect the PCH to the CPU's cooling system (e.g., heatsink), causing the PCH to absorb excess heat from the much hotter CPU. This can lead to the PCH running at dangerously high temperatures, potentially causing system instability or permanent damage.
