Source for phase change thermal pads

[MarkA]

I have to replace a mobo with an AMD XP 2800+ cpu on it. AMD is very
particular that the ONLY thermal transfer agent they approve for the
CPU/heatsink interface is a phase change pad, but I am unable to find a
retailer that sells them. EVERYBODY sells the tubes of paste, but where
to find the pads?

Use the paste. AMD is talking out of their arse.

If Pac-Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened
rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic
music.
