What heatsink compound have you guys been using as a redo on the singles Huh

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.

Thanks,but I have grown VERY fond of Ceramique for CPU's & GPU's,for the last 6-8 years,but for these FPGA's I think it's a little too thick.

I'm mainly curious about what folks have actually used for the FPGA's.

So far MX-4,any others??

Please keep the suggestions coming,Thanks Grin
