Isn't there one where a battle barge reduces a planet to rubble with lance strikes? It's what was (IIRC) described in the novel for Dawn of War.
...although that WAS written by the Goto, so there's not a great deal of credibility there, but hey.

That Exterminatus contradicts almost all sources since a measly Imperator titan survives it.Galaxy in Flames is so badly written.

10'000 years ago, Terra was under siege. The Sons of Rogal Dorn stood firm at the gate, never letting an inch slip away so long as we drew breath. We were killed in droves defending the Emperor and his Imperium, and we killed many in turn. We defended the Emperor and his Imperium, and this is what it means to be a Fist

Why choose just one? Burn the atmosphere with a virus bomb and blow it up with a torpedo. for when you really want to be sure.

It should be noted that not all cyclonic torpedoes penetrate the planets core. Some cyclonic torpedos are described as detonating on impact w/ the planets surface (and oddly enough these are the ones that are usually described as shattering the planet). The type that burrow seem to instead bring about the end of a planet by supercharging plate tectonics or something like that, causing superheated molten metal to burn everything on the surface, etc.
Personally, I went virus bomb. It seems the most 'graceful' (for lack of a better term) option.

The coolest is the over-the-top virus bomb, and it's also my favourite.

I gotta go with the Cyclonic. Something might theoretically survive the virus bomb and/or firestorm. Nothing survives the entire planet disintegrating.
