Ive been using the Tuniq Tx2 which did a good job of cooling, had to use my old AS3 as a ran out of tx2 (motherboard issues), im not a fan of it, don't know what AS5 is like but the cure time is a pain and the fact that its sticky is not nice, makes removing the heatsink a pain to try and remove it without pulling the CPU out.

I went with Xigmatek... works within a 1c of AS5 it's thin and easy to apply, and tastes better than any other TIM I've used:laugh:
