Dammit! Where can I get....

A nice thermal pad? I just gave my laptop heatsink a clean, and reapplied AS3 as you normally do, but now it doesnt make contact with the processor. Lame!

Anyone know where I can get a nice new pad? Preferably thick.

Cheers all.

Thought about a small piece of copper or aluminum with AS3 on each side - if it's quite a thick gap, you'll get much better thermal conductivity than a TIM.

If you want to do TIMs, then overclockers sell a pack of 5 for 3.50 here:
