I actually got a bad batch of MX-2 2 months it failed i reapplied and it's failed already- I'm using AS5 now but seriously looking for something as good as MX-2 without the failures, trust me I know they would replace it But 2 fails = no more for me ever...Bad batch or not...I'll never trust MX-2 again... and it's a sudden failure to...thought maybe it was just my cooler unseating so I replaced it....just to have it fail again....I really hate the alarm sound of my TCP...and i really don't want to hear it again...It scares the shit out of you...MX-2 is definitely better, but i hear Arctic silver 5 is also a great thermal paste.

That's the advice I needed to hear thank youIf you check the reviews, all of the better TIM's are within 1-3c of each other, so there really is not much difference b/t them. I do suggest that you buy something non-conductive. That's the only knock against AS5. The only other thing to consider is consistency. That's why I use MX2 and the higher end Noctua stuff. I like the way it spreads.
