yeah i've heard a lot a/b Shin Etsu. but u also give me that "somebody" on another forums told u it was better. i've read a couple of user reports on the amdforums that Shin Etsu improves their temps by 6C over AS3. but then again i've read that an equal amount of people say there wasnt much if any improvement over AS3. usually when Shin Etsu gets a bad report people will say "did u apply it correctly?" or "have u let it cured?" but i have to also wonder the same for people who say Shin Etsu worked. Did they apply AS3 correctly? problem is applying the same amount of paste for different kinds is hard. and then it has to be the same mounting pressure. then how well did they clean it off. a lot of questions. its gotten good reviews but from what i've read i think its inconclusive. but who knows. it is the paste that AMD and Intel recommend so maybe it does work.
