What heatsink compound have you guys been using as a redo on the singles
Personally, I despise thermal grease. I plan to replace the grease in my mini rigs with phase change material (PCM).
Some info:

Where I buy it:

Also on Newegg:

Experience has led me to love PCM for CPU and GPU cooling. Never tried on an FPGA, but I'm definitely going to.
The feedback on Newegg doesn't exactly sound confidence-inspiring...
