I wonder. Mx-4 blob or spread. If blob how big in mm?

Try the method described here: http://www.arcticsilver.com/pdf/appmeth ... e_v1.1.pdf ... it's for AS5, but the method is good regardless of the particular thermal paste you intend to use
Re: I7 930 no oc temps am I going nuts?
Your temps seem fine.
Idle temps might be a few degree higher than avarage but still within the sample variance of i7 9xx. Temps should get lower over time (~2 weeks) of applying th MX. I'm using MX-1 on an i7 2600K and idle temps dropped about 5 degree withing a few weeks.
