hehe i buy at around RM 10. 1 canister, probably contains 3 - 5 times the amount found on AS / CM tubes.

i vote others...am using CM NanoFusion for my notebook...hehe

:shake hand:

oh, sorry then, maybe I'm expecting too much from thermal paste and brand.... But, need to switch to other since my CM syringe just finished up...

MX-1 here. well it came with the heatsink fan.

so consensus says that paste doesnt really matter...mx-1 is good enough without the hanky panky AS5's =/ and the bigger price tag which could mean a KFC lunch xD

if i never oc, which thermal paste would be recomended ???

i never change for 1 year oledi lolz

must change once a month (for maximum thermal dissipation, and for OC freak) or at least once 6 months if u are lazy.

*capalang RM3 (or less), the white colour one, which looks like toothpaste. is recommended for u. no need buy expensive one, as it not worth at all. even though u are a super oc freak or oc noob.

As far as i know, the AS5 is having the same price tag as of the MX-1 and with the AS5 proven to work very well..

Choices of thermal paste really depends on user preference. To some, 1 - 2c is a big deal so getting a good paste is essential while to others who do not care, even chaplang one will work well..Heck, i have chaplang silver paste with me as well..

True ka? For my previous rig, never changed for 3 years!!!

Is there any references that say you have to change the thermal paste frequently?

Me using AS-5! Looking forward to AS-6 @ MX-2......

if i overclocker also use el-cheapo thermal paste - i'm sure you can use it.

and i don't bother changing every 6 month also. my heatsink not easy to remove you know.

what thermal paste did thermal right gave that come together with it heat sink, white colour and a bit sticky.........it work quite well and have quite a lot

Should be the chill factor but packed in a different way.

direct contact.currently conroe setup no use any thermalpaste.

last time used to have nano fusion,as5,MX-1,and a lot,i still vote for MX-1 and toothpaste,no kidding,they can transfer heat like tim.

Errr... why no thermal paste????

I actually did get a 10C drop going from cheapass to AS5. But of course i followed the application instructions extremely precisely. Super clean surfaces, and only a tiny little drop of paste. Use too much and performance goes to hell.


My AS5 tube which i bought as soon as it was available is still more than half full. I have used it many times, on my own stuff as well as my friends'. As i said above, less is more.

No brand one.. RM2.50.

AS5 for me..yea if follow instructions perfectly it will drop quite of amount of degrees... mine prolly about 5-8C..Its been 6months i guess is time for me chg thermal paste..Would like to try the MX 1 tho..
