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.

i heard from another forumer about AS5 dries up after few months of usage too, it seems it cannot stand high OC temp and high CFM conditions.......

MX-1 i saw Mypc selling them, got a few stick........

BTW......WAh so nice thermalright......... packed chill factor for their heat sink as well, and the whole syringe is quite a lot, can use more then 10 times i think........ but i wasted abit, apply too much the first time..

erm.. only got MX-1.

Between AS5 and MX-1 which one is better arr??

QUOTE
No metal particles

Since the MX-1 does not contain any metal particles, there are no problems regarding electrical conductivity and capacitance. In contrast to silver and copper compounds, contact to electrical traces, pins, and leads cannot result in any damage.

Durability

The compound hardens within a period of 200 hours and reaches thereafter its optimum performance. Because of the hardened compound, no evaporation or bleeding is possible. In contrast to metal or silicon pastes, this compound does not show decreasing performance over time, does not need to be reapplied and has a durability of at least 8 years.

You can find 3M thermal tape from uglyvamp. He got quite a number of them..

Anyway, other choice is, you can always use double sided tape. They can work as well but not as good as those thermal tapes.

Well, dont just believe reviews. Try it yourself. Its like those review are always finding something to beat the AS5. Review also did say that the Chill Factor can beat the AS5 hands down but to be honest, i do feel that AS5 is still better...
