I know people really want to take charts like this as gospel, but you cant.

I saw another spread from that group where they said TF7 was better than SYY.. it isn't.

I mean he already owns both though, so imo he should still use the mX-6.

Just use whatever, honestly. For CPU cooling it really is much of muchness in the end between decent pastes. The difference effectively will be marginal at best.
