After having to bin an entire tube of MX-5, I feel kind of burned. I'll stay with the trusty old MX-4 for a while before I give it a go.

TG do wonders. Best thing out there sans the price. MX-4 is close behind.

Agreed. TG Kryonaut is my favorite paste ever - it's just not worth the extra price over the MX-4.

Hi,
Yeah mods finally locked the eol mx-5 thread so thought it threw everyone off a bit so thought I would bump this one
I did get some mx-6 just for grins after I found a black D15 cheap off amazon warehouse.

I didn't toss my mx-5 didn't think it was a reject although it was greenish and looked like alien baby crap :eek:
