CPU/Mobo Temp increased after applying coolermaster compound

i applied ocz extreme but just 1 degree drop on temps.

now which one is the best to go for??

as5, mx2 or anything special.
 
No matter which TIM you use, you will get differentials of 3-4 degrees at a maximum. 5 degrees if it is really really good. Either the application method is wrong, the HSF is seated incorrectly, thermal diode reporting error, or software error. Else someone suggested, reset the BIOS once.

By the way, how are you monitoring temperatures. Use the latest CoreTEMP, HW Monitor, and Everest Lavalys to cross reference. Do not look at BIOS temperatures.
