The link to the original paper is in the slashdot article (http://zzz.com.ru/chung.zip). This paper contains all the details and suppliers. I used the butyl-ether-based paste, best for 75C and below. This contains 40 vol.% dissolved ethyl cellulose and dispersed carbon black in the optimum amount of 0.20 vol.%. I used a mortar and pestal to mix the ingredients for about 20 minutes. Then I just let it stand covered in a cool place over night to let the bubbles rise out. I ended up making a cupful of the stuff fairly cheaply.

I read the oringinal article by Leong & Chung and made some paste based on their optimal recomendations. I replaced the Arctic Silver on my Athlon XP 2000 with this and saw my CPU idle temperature drop from 45C to 32C!!. The ambient room temp was identical in both cases. Fortunately I work in a lab - but maybe I should go into business.
