Its got a similar constancy of Shin Etsu which is pretty thick. Its a PITA because it takes a while to completely get everything off the IHS as it leaves residue thats tough to scrub off.

Correct, I was just looking and I can't find it (the Netherlands, so don't spam me with USA links!)

What's the next best thing? OCZ Freeze?

I've been having great results with OCZ Freeze. One thing I really like about it is the clean up. Never take the clean up for granted. AC5 was a nightmare to get clean.

Yeah getting AS5 off usually takes a while. So OCZ Freeze is really easy to remove? And suitable for both CPU and GPU?

I must say it's a little expensive, €10 for a small tube

Can't find that IC Diamond 7 anywhere in the UK. OCZ is just as good. Would love to try the Coollaboratory Liquid Pro. Can get it from SCAN here.

I looks little but i've done 5 CPU mounts + my NB/SB mount and I still have what looks like most of my tube left. You just need to put a little "rice" size line on the IHS before bolting down the HSF/Waterblock etc.

Yeah I know that, but that AS5 tube is bigger and cheaper. But I guess I'll try some of that OCZ Freeze stuff.
