Its a long story, but I need to glue a hsf to an idt winchip. I see a lot of processors with the hsf glued on and wonder what I should use?

When I installed heatsinks on my video card ram chips I put a thin layer of heatsink compound in the center of the chip and a small drop of super glue on each corner. Then press the heatsink on really hard an it will bond almost instantly. Just make sure you never need to get it off.

I checked out the arctic silver glue, and it looks great, but since I have to get it out by monday, and Darrins paste plus glue looks like it will work I am going to try that.
