All right! For the record not all Tim do not work within 3C of each other. Also Indigo Extreme is the best of all time and the most expensive at (30 bucks? Price check*).
Furthermore two reasons AS5 is trash.
1. 200 hour cure time. Yuck!
2. Metal based. Yikes!
It does not consist of non conductive material much like zalmam which is VERY non conductive at 4.1W/mk. (because it's carbon based) While AS5 is metal based, other products are not. That being said, spill some metal based (or worse liquid metal) TIM onto your main board and it could fry it. For liquid metal TIMs check out CooLabs.

Well, you can believe whatever you would like to believe.
After years of personal experience and trying a ridonkulous number of TIM they all work more or less the same, and its very user dependent based on your experience mounting X to Y.
Hey I could post websites that prove or disprove nearly ANY topic we can think of, but that doesnt make it accurate. This is the internet. There are TONS of people posting all kinds of nonsense out there.
That being said, the article you posted is 3 years old. In the world of computers, thats about 2 or 3 lifetimes
But hey if you like that super expensive TIM more power to you. Id nearly guarantee I can achieve the same temps as you with ANY TIM provided we are using the same hardware, and our ambient temps are the same.
Or at least within 3C!
