Crikey, well that settles that I guess. I didn't think AS5 was that high nor water that low. Thanks for the info. THe only advantage now would be that the "joint" between the die and block would be almost 100% solid, no air. But yeah... AS5 it is then.

The thermal conductivity of ice at -35C is 2.5W/m-k... but that is still too low. And I guess the thermal conductivity of mercury is only 8.34W/m-k. But I won't even go there.
