Same TIM I use on everything.

Often times soft cold boot problems come from teh MB and not the CPU. Just insulate well.

I have seen people use so much TIM its like spreading tooth paste all over the place. I just use a little, spread it around and all is good.

After I mount the pot I fire up the comp and bring it into the BIOS, no cold in the pot yet. I let it warm up to 50-60c or so then shut off the comp. The heat will help settle down the TIM before going cold.
