#1 I got an Asus p4c800-e deluxe and I'm removing the north bridge heat sink cause I'm puttin on a swiftech MCX-159P, by putting on thermal paste alone without actually mounting the old north bridge,will it stick to my south bridge chipset?
#2 Where can I buy some easy-to-install voltage regulator heatsink(s)?
 
#1 You should use the thermal ceramique.
#2 I don't know...

And you should only bump every 6 hours or so... Unless its horribly urgent...
 
AS5 would not work. It needs to be an epoxy, not a paste.
Epoxy usually comes in 2 tubes, and you need to mix them together to make the epoxy.
 
would the arctic alumina my MCX159-P came with work? I also will have some extra thermal encapsulate from the hard drive cooler in my Koolance setup, it's the tan and white junk you mix, would that work?

Yes, that stuff is what you want
 
which? The hard drive thermal encapsulate or the Arctic Alumina?
 
If the arctic alumina you mention is the arctic alumina epoxy, then both would work, though the arctic alumia would probably be better. If the arctic alumina is just the paste, then the koolance stuff would do the trick.
