Arctic Silver 5 vs Cooler Master ShinEtsu??

[Scheizekopf]

I know Arctic Silver is the #1 around here but does anybody really like ShinEtsu or even like it better than Arctic Silver?

Please everybody comment.

I have an order of Arctic Silver on backorder. Should I go with the Cooler Master ShinEtsu or wait out for the Arctic Silver 5?

Or is there anything else better?

Thanks for all comments.

you can get as5 almost anywhere... why dont you just cancel that order and get it elsewhere?

shinetsu is supposed to be okay stuff, but it doesnt even perform as well as as ceramique... see here...

IMO as5 is the way to go in this case...

I have an order with SVC.com and I have like 4 other items.
And with shipping at another site plus the AS5 will be over priced.

if you live close to a frys you could definitely get it there and not pay shipping at all...

I'll check around.

I just removed the AS5 from my order and got the other 5 things.

But for future information. . . Anybody like ShinEtsu better than AS5?
