Yeah. I too was thinking about the same. But are these pastes for a long term use? I read a lot of articles regarding pastes/pads and some of them said pastes should be strictly used for a short term i.e. if you're going to change the CPU frequently then one should use pastes while if you're not going to change the CPU for a long time then pads should be used... -- Dinesh A.
