The average web-surfing, email-checking net slave doesn't think much about thermal paste. Thermal performance probably never enters their mind until they get a whiff of burning silicon, if then. Now, consider your average enthusiast. They probably worry about temps, but not to the extreme of buying branded, high-end thermal paste. Even among the enthusiast community, many are happy with stock cooling. However there is a sub-culture inside our sub-culture. They crave MHz like an addict craves smack. Every single detail of their computer is designed to eek out that little extra fps or to shave off a millisecond rendering time. They route cables, install fans, mod their PC's and even buy fancy thermal compound to get their CPU's a degree Celsius cooler. Today, I'm reviewing Tuniq TX-2 thermal paste. I normally use Arctic Silver 5. Let's see how it stacks up.
