Which heat-conducting paste would you use to repaste your notebook?

Hi, have an MSI GT73VR 6RE 0017A1-SKU5
A key question would be LM (liquid metal) or a conventional paste right from the start...
according to http://forum.notebookreview.com/thr...t-vs-cool-laboratory-liquid-ultra-pro.791489/

is the difference between Grizzly Kryonaut and Grizzly Conductonaut 10 degrees in idle and under load and 10 degrees are a huge amount for me. Of course, LM also has many disadvantages that we don't have to chew through.... the CLU (coollaboratory liquid ultra) is supposed to be a 1 to 2 degrees lower than the temperature like the grizzly conductonaut but its consistency is firmer (thereby it runs harder), it should be easier to apply and it shouldn't " stick " as much as other LMs. The only great danger I see during the transport when LM leaves, whereas I would not have read about any case in the internet where LM would have destroyed the notebook afterwards after a correct repaste.

On amazon even it is not electrically conductive https://www.amazon.de/Coollaboratory-Liquid-Ultra-Cooling-Reinigungsset/dp/B0039RY3MM and I don't think so.

So I'm faced with the decision to either use a Grizzly cryonaut (without having to mask the electrical construction site) or to use the CLU but then tape it off. What would you do?

p. s if anyone knows... would also like to swap the Thermal Pads. Which thickness is recommended? would use this one here... https://www.amazon.de/ARCTIC-Therma...F8&qid=1517741757&sr=1-4&keywords=thermal+pad

 

I would do a search or file through the thread as its been already talked about a while back:

For the most part its preference, whenever people delid a CPU they use liquid metal because it is the CPU die onto the IHS, in our case its CPU die to the cooler so liquid metal will still work, on the other hand depending on where you live or the environment you're in, it may or may not be a good idea to use liquid metal as it may dry up too fast or end up having to maintain it more frequently.

I personally use Grizzly Kryonaut as I don't want to mess with liquid metal atm and my batch is back home in Florida (currently live in Japan). Applied mine Feb 23 of last year and its still going fine, both CPU and GPU. Everyone has their own preference in brand, material, application method and what not so you'll see mixed reviews. This has worked fine for me, may or may not for the other guy.

Check out the threads as people have mentioned customizing thermal pads.
