Best TIM I've ever used...so good I ordered two more tubes. No cure time (or very little) and it does the job very well on the NB compared to that godawful stock crap they pile on the heatsink.

I ran out a few days ago and got myself a nice deal on a 30g tube of MX-2 ($20)..the idle temps are the same but the load temps are about 1'C higher...that can be down to user error.


AS5 sucks in my view, I got myself a 5g tube and ended up not bothering using it as the load temps are about 3 - 4'C worst than FreeZe was and its a bitch to clean off once baked.
