Whats Your Fancy?

[Twist86]

So I was curious whats your fancy on PC thermal paste?

I myself like AS5 BUT I have been hearing some good stories on ZM-STG1 being 5-6c cooler on X2s. Seems a bit to good to be true imo.

(forgive if I forgot one lemme know will try to edit it in)

I've used MX-2 and AS5. I prefer MX-2. It's easier to apply and the tube is fancier. I never tested whether or not temps are cooler with MX-2, but I've seen some tests on the internet that show MX-2 performing better than AS5. I'll see if I can find a few.

for anything sub zero= AS5 ceramic is the best choice

MX-2 and AS5 are both great compounds. AS5 is wonderful, but I'm most likely going to use MX2 for my next build.
