Mx-2 has better performance than arctic silver and is non-conductive,
Ocz's thermal paste is made from silver like arctic silver but tests have shown it to perform on part with everything except diamond-based thermal pastes.

I'll look into it now,making this order in 2 days.

Included mx2 in order,I'll get both and compare.

I just don't catch it the CFx Board with the nvidia card rofl XD.... really ... why not buy an SLI board if you're go to buy an Nvidia card?

I am not looking to SLI for now.I'll just be glad to replace this 6800gt.
For that matter I could just get a GX2,and save myself a headache.

Good plan and let us know how that CPU cooler performs I doubt for twice the cost it will perform as well as this one ... but I might be wrong as I have never tested one ... Have a Freezer 7 in a drawer here somewhere if anyone needs a 50CAD CPU cooler that ain't worth a sh*t

30-40CAD(with second fan)

I've reviewed both MX-2 and TX-2. (I have about 3 tubes of each now......) and I personally like them more than the AS5 (I still have a tube of it).

btw MX-2 and TX2 are from different companies though. MX-2 is from Arctic Cooling while TX-2 is from Tuniq, part of Sunbeamtech
