MX-3 Review
I purchased a tube of MX-3 last week. I read on most review sites that it drops temps 4C compared to MX-2. It did exactly what most reviews said and dropped temps underload 4C.
__________________Here are the results: MX-2 idle 53C MX-2 underload 70C. Using intel burn test. MX-3 idle 48C MX-3 underload 66C. Using intel burn test. Cheers.

Never used the MX-2 myself; anyone know how it compares with other thermal compounds like the Freeze or as5?

Just Fold It.

Well I couldn't justify the cost of putting in another order other than the Sidewinder one I just put in. Only place I could find MX-3 was Petra's, let alone the cost was almost 2x than that of MX-2. I just picked up a 4g of MX-2 to hold me over till MX-3 comes down in price.
Other than availability/price, it looks to be a nice TIM.

that's sick, I'll jump off of AS5 when my tube runs out.
but in reality i'm thinking i'll see 1-2C temp drops. But any drop on the top-end helps
