Hey guys, I'm wondering if anyone has any info regarding the difference in temperatures btw Intel's stock TIM and AS5. I know, as a general principle, that AS5 is always better than the stock TIM that comes with retail HSFs, but I was wondering if anyone had any concrete data to show how big an improvement AS5 makes. Reason I ask is I'm thinking about taking my E6600 to 3GHz with the stock cooler and, obviously, the lower the temps the better.
