Ok, the choices are as follows:

- OCZ Freeze
- Arctic Silver 5
- Noctua NT-H1

I've used AS5 in the past, but I'm running out, so I'd like to know which one is actually the best, since I'll be ordering it in an hour or so.

Thanks!

AS5 and OCZ free=Best thermal paste. Doesn't matter which one of the two you pick TBH

Well I'm not looking for the best thermal paste, that would probably be IC7 or MX3, I just have 3 options, but thanks everyone for the suggestions, I think I'll go with OCZ Freeze then

AS5 has a curing time so i dont know if ocz freeze does but if it doesnt get that. I use AS5 as i can get it right here at frys for $8 and i am set.

In that case OCZ Freeze for sure. I have heard the Noctua paste is amazing as well, but nobody here has really done any testing with it. Maybe try it out for us?

Well if I go by price, AS5 is the cheapest (€5), while OCZ Freeze is €6,90 and the NT-H1 (what kind of a name is that anyway?) costs the most (€7,90). I will however pick up both the OCZ Freeze and the Noctua NT-H1, and do a 3-way test by adding in the rest of my AS5, hope to see some interesting results

. Hopefully I'll have my 35 reps soon so I can sell the failing TIM or I might as well give it away as a freebie, dunno

.

Anyway, off to make my order now, thanks everyone, reps are being handed out after the call I think XD.

Sweet man, I'm curious to see how it performs!

I used the Noctua and OCZ Freeze, and the OCZ Freeze beats it by a few degrees.
