I just read one of the most comprehensive comparison about different thermal compunds that was posted over BenchmarkReviews, and I though I'd share it with you:

Wow that is one detailed review. Thank you for linking it. It's nice to see Arctic Silver 5 rocking the competition.

You're welcome! 
Yeah, AS5 always rocks, along with the OCZ Freeze I'm currently using.

| Wow..that is a lot of work to test all of those. I will have to refer back to this soon as I have been thinking of doing my laptop heatpipe. Temps aren't bad but if I start using it more for SolidWorks it will be cranking away so every bit will help. |

| I just bought a tube of Artic Silver 5, I saw a previews review on the same site with 33 different pastes and OCZ and another company came out on top (and OCZ is much cheaper). Newegg was out of stock on the OCZ, glad I got the silver! |
