What Thermal Paste Do You Use?

In order for Arctic Silver to really make a difference, the CPU and heatsink surfaces need to be tinted properly, the paste needs to be applied correctly and sparingly and there is a break in period of 200 hours until it reaches it's peak effectiveness.

I use Arctic Silver for installs where overclocking is expected or overheating is an issue, otherwise I tend to stick with whatever comes already applied to the heatsink by the mfr.

I've always been an Artic Silver 5 fan.

However, I just ordered some Tuniq TX-2 from Newegg.

Read the reviews (a lot of them)........search google, and it is highly thought of by the "Over Clockers".

Cheap too, $6.99 and free shipping.
