Why do people still compare it to AS5 when MX2 has been the new best of the mass produced thermal pastes?

LOL. Not a whole heatsink la. Probably a thin plate, like you said.....  smile.gif

Look here (page 6): http://tweakers.net/reviews/740/1/chip-mag...m-pagina-1.html

Yeah, it almost guaranteed its a thin plate, even then it will still be like imaging the processor though a very thick piece of glass. One thing for sure, it will definitely be flat, or using the laser to break circuits would be impossible because focusing would be impossible.

Anything that cleans normal thermal paste is fine. The homemade diamond paste mentioned by the first link was done using diamond powder and silicone thermal paste, and got that 10C result.

diamond is the top of the list in heat conduction followed by silver, copper and aluminium. It is also an excellent insulator against electricity due to the atomic structure that tightly holds the valence electrons... anyways, industrial diamonds aka articifial diamonds can be used for this.. but a caution though, when u mix this things, make sure u wear a mask, or u will endanger yourself.
