I thought the mayonnaise result was interesting. Mmm the smell of bacon as I play Skyrim http://www.baconnaise.com/

lol @ ic diamond needing to be warmed up....I put it on my cpu (expensively expensive) Man I was pushing and pushing then it just started to show. Got enough on the chip (pea size) took the tube away and the pea size came with it....got it on in the end by dabbing and making a mess. All good experience though and it does work very well.
Ic Diamond for me, ive used about 7 different types over the years, but ic diamond was the one that i truly saw a difference, especially top end, it was 5 degrees below mx4 and AS5 for me.
i WAS an Acrctic silver man before i tried this stuff
needs to be warmed to apply, very warm!!!
i put it on a pea sized amount, pressed down, screwed down heatsink until decent contact, ran prime for 5 minutes then tightened down everything. This was with pc flat on table so heatsink stood upwards and pressed downwards
thats the best way ive found to apply paste , thats using my venomous x though, which has a pressure screw once it's fitted for extra tigthening
I wont use anyting else now, but AS5 is very good for the price no doubt
