First time using a premium compound other than white goop.

Here's my temps for MX-2 (P4 2.4GHz stock, 7600GS DDR2 AGP stock, temps read from speedfan, CPU stressed with Prime95, GPU stressed with rthdribl)

Before: Stock pad/compound removed, applied with white goop.
CPU Local Idle: 34
CPU Local Load: 40

CPU Remote Idle: 36
CPU Remote Load: 53

GPU Idle: 43
GPU Load: 54

After: White goop removed, applied with MX-2
CPU Local Idle: 34
CPU Local Load: 39

CPU Remote Idle: 36
CPU Remote Load: 51

GPU Idle: 45
GPU Load: 57

*Rerun*
GPU Idle: 42
GPU Load: 50

Only a very slight decrease in temps. Something's odd with the GPU Load after applying MX-2. Conclusion: Stock heatsinks suck.

PS: Reseated the GPU's heatsink. I think there wasn't enough pressure in the earlier run.
