Thermal Grease @ Newegg.com

[Riznarf]

Any word on when newegg is going to be getting some more mx-1 or other high end thermal pastes in stock? I'm planning on building in mid-Aug and was hoping to have something a little higher end than AS5 (or is this just splitting hairs here)? Thanks fellas.

You can get it at Petra's for the same price:
Petra's Tech Shop - MX-1

That is splitting hairs worrying a lot over getting MX-1 or MX-2 thermal grease however it's still nice to have. In august MX-2 should be the one thats going to be out and good so look for it.

whatever you do noone never EVER get that liquid metal crap
its works horribly and then it fried your cpu and mobo

Reviews have said the MX-2 is better than MX-1 by a degree or two. So if it's better than MX-1, then it is either equal to that of Cool Labs or better.

is 1 tube at 2 grams enough thermal paste for my system build? What do I use thermal paste on besides the HSF?
