Here's a review of TIM's from 2011. Based on that review, I got some TG-1 and liked working with it better than AS-5. (MX-4 is not included in that review) It did seem to work better than AS-5.

Thanks again!
pretty intersting information,
By the way as a review about Arctic Silver 5, which is last one I used,
Cure time: Last time took about a week, also during this curing time and 1st and 2nd use I got higher temps, they were lowering as the product cures,
usage: 14 months, when replaced still fresh, It was not dried, burned or trashed,
I replaced it with the stock Compound with my new Water 3.0 pro, I upgraded like 2 or 3 weeks ago, I would upgrade thermal compound with one of these 3:
· Thermaltake TG series
· Arctic Cooling MX4
· Evercool Cruising missile
This is the main reason I'm asking everyone about Thermaltake TG series, I've heard about pretty good results of some people but there is no data to confirm,
For a reference about other product, I have another compound to share:
COOLER MASTER IceFusion: this is the cheap compound I use on basic repairs, 40g presentation, last forever, it takes like 3 years or more to dry, you can also leave the flask open, it wont dry,
The review:
Cure Time: I'm not sure if it there is a curing time for it , since the application of it till now days there is no noticeable difference between temps, maybe 1 or 2 degrees but I think they depend of ambient temperature
Compared to Stock temperature of the processor intel: e8400, stock Cooler:
Idle: 67c
Load:96c
intel e8400, Stock cooler // COOLER MASTER IceFusion, Pea size application method:
idle:52
Load:84
No overclock because it's my mom computer, last aplication 15 months ago
Specs: Intel® G41 Express, 4Gb DDr2 800, 1 green HDD, 1 Optical Drive, Mustiff 500w PSU, Generic Case, 3 Fan 2 intake, 1 exhaust,
