Where does MS get there compound from :'(

[APE]

The thermal compound is made from the bones of still borns. Or so I've been told by Satan himself.

I've always replaced it with IC7 diamond based compound which works wonders, only thing better is phase change TIMs which are typically limited to a handful of CPU sockets.

i just use industrial transistor compound still 100x better than the ms stuff, kits seem to have the compound put on really badly, my zephyr was worst than this if il find the pic il upload it lol
