IMHO, MX2 is much better now. I've yet to really compare the temps between MX1 n MX2 but the ease of application is so much better now. It's more liquid. Also when u remove the heatsinks as often as I do, u'll really appreciate how easy it is to lift the heatsink off the CPU.

Last time AS5 will stick to the heatsink like superglue n practically yank out the whole socket while pulling off the heatsink. MX1 was better than AS5 in that respect, easier to pull off the heatsink but still difficult. With MX2, the heatsink just comes off easily. That's sumthin we dont read about in TIM reviews. LOL. They oni concentrate on pure performance but no feedback on ease of use.

Just send it to lolhalol. He can put in his thermal paste thread. Wud be good to add in 4 more pastes.
