I just use the Liquid Ultra between the Die and IHS, not sure what I am going to use between the IHS and Heatsink. I have to order something for between the IHS and the Heatsink.
I wonder if I can replace the the long xclamp studs from the slim with the short xclamp studs from the phat and do away with the IHS? I have lapped the heatsink so its perfectaly flat.
As for Delidding advice I unplugged the fan and used a IR temp gun and got te temp up a little to soften the glue between IHS and die, I then used the razor blade to cut some of the glue and used one of the $5 IHS tools on ebay.
Also I have a free sample of this product coming to test the contact between Die - IHS and IHS - Heatsink.

these guys are sending me 5 free tubes of IC 24c & enough Fuji Prescale paper to test the contact and pressure of my heatsink and IC is going to pay for 6 of the Prescale samples to be digitally analyzed for their first 360 test and info for the site.
Ill post pics and stuff when i do the test.
