HI.

I would use one of the aftermarket TIM's. In no particular order: AS5, Shin-Itsu, OCZ Freeze, IC-Daimond.

Probably go with OCZ Freeze or the time-tested AS5.

I personally use MX-2, but never settle for stock

Freeze, because it doesn't have a curing time. You see instant results.

Clearly OCZ Freeze is the best of the three. Why you would need to create a thread to know that, is beyond me.
