today i brought thermal paste at a computer shop for $6. it is 1.5g tube of sliver based thermal heatsink grease. SILVGREASE1. the company name is startech.com
on the tube it writes
thermal conductivity 7.5W/m-k
thermal restiance 0.06 C-in/w
25% sliver included.
now tell me is this a good thermal paste for me to use? whats the difference between the artic sliver and this thermal paste?
 
You got ripped off for some 50-cent tube of Radio Shack thermal paste with a flashy label that said "SILVER".
 
The paste will work for your computer if you still want to use it.

But arctic silver IS the cream of the crop.

Go to www.jab-tech.com and get a 3 gram tube of AS5 for 6.00, free first class USPS shipping in the US. Buy some other stuff with better shipping and they will add the AS5 to your package for no additional shipping charge. Jab-tech has good prices.
