overclocker paradise is selling AS5

edited (Off Topic): is there any special method to apply zalman ZM-STG1? i just got that from moderno and after i applied it, my processor temp is higher (4-5c) than previously. before this, i used stock grease from intel. is it i need wait it to sink in before i can see the difference?

1. i used artic cleaner to clean my processor.
2. i put the grease on all the surface of the processor.

any problem with my application? i already checked the processor heatsink, it is properly intact.

I'm having similar result too, my proc temp increase by 4-5c. Mebbe we need to wait until the paste cure in. B4 this, I used AS5 thermal paste. My method of applying is a bit differ from yours.

1. I used alcohol to clean my proc & heat sink
2. I applied the paste on the proc & the heat sink surface

I applied on one side previously with AS5. But with ZM-STG1, they say I must applied to both side.

from Zalman's website...

Application Instructions

1. Clear off particles or residue from the contact surfaces of the heat source and heatsink.
2. Shake well then apply on the contact surfaces of the heat source and heatsink.
3. Install the heatsink.
