Default Replacement for AS5?

I'm looking for a replacement to my AS5 since i'm fresh out of it (i still have a tube of ceramique, but that's just for GPU/MB cooling)
i was looking at:
OCZ Freeze extreme for 4,90€
AC MX3 for 7.90 €
which one is the better choice?

Most people will lean towards the MX-3, but the differences are pretty minute.... you really can't go wrong with either

None of them are conductive, not even AS5.

AS5 is slightly capacitive, however, which is where most people get confused about.

On Topic: Get the OCZ Freeze. It's worked awesomely for me.
