I'm ordering [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181040[/url] for my EVO, and figured I might as well replace the stock thermal paste. Recommendations? I was thinking [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835100007[/url]
Probably going to use it for my EVO and the GTX 680 I just got.
IIRC, you don't really need anything too intense for Thermal Paste. Most of it makes no difference, and only the really high end makes a total difference of ~3-5 Degrees (Celcius) cooler.
But yeah, that'll do just fine.
Artic MX-4 is a good one too.
Best I'd actually go with is IC 7 Carat.
I don't think aftermarket paste makes a difference unless you have a high end cooler

Did facefag already get banned?
On an unrelated note, does FP do IP bans?

All three of his accounts were permabanned. I'm not sure about whether or not they do IP bans.

5° is around 7% of the max I want my CPU to be during intel burn, so 7% higher clock speed. I know it's not a big difference, but that plus it on my GPU plus installing W8 plus various other tweaks = a lot of performance increase.

Yeah they do. Either hes logging in via a proxy (common ones are banned as well) Or it takes some time to kick in.
Man, I'll never understand the amount of effort he puts in to be wrong.

He's right in his own little delusional world of yahoo answers and youtube videos
I'd accuse him of being a shill, but that's probably giving him too much credit
Please don't buy arctic silver, it's outdated.

This is a fairly recent roundup of thermal pastes.
You want Diamond based thermal pastes since diamond has the best thermal conductivity. I've heard the best is Innovation Cooling's Diamond.

Like that? I can get it dirt cheap at work. (For cost)
That would be pretty great.
Just use the stock paste
