I have 20 Xeon CPUs to fit to SuperMicro motherboards this week for a trading company. These are six core xeons and top spec mbs so I don't want to be messing around with cheapo thermal paste!

Any recommendations on decent thermal paste (and quite a lot of it)? Arctic MX-3 looks OK and is pretty reasonably priced on here but how many applications will I get out of a 4g tube?
 
Cheers for the info guys - think I'm going to go with MX4 as it's not too pricey. It would be good to be able to buy in bulk though as I now have another 20x W3690 to fit and another 40x W3580 to remove and re-market.

I think non conductive might be a sensible route to take as any mistakes could be pretty costly.

Next think to do is work out what to do with the old W3580 CPUs... think i hear eBay calling!
