CPU/Mobo Which thermal paste - Thermalright ChillFactor II or 2 year old Arctic MX2

[Lord Nemesis]

I have a 2 year old tube of Arctic MX2 and I have a tube of Chill Factor II bundled with my Venomous X. Which one would be better?

Yeah, someone would say try both and decide, I would rather save myself the extra work?

Chill factor II is great, better than MX 2

How about mixing both, that way you might get another few degree drop in temps

Would probably go with the 'newer' one. Manufacturing date.

Chill Factor II is anyday better than MX-2. And Dont mix, as they both might have different combinations even if both are Al-Oxide compounds, and can result in even worse performance.

 

[devvfata1ity]

chillfactor II definitely because its newer

 

[WingZero]

+1 for CF II. 10chars

Thermalright ChillFactor II which comes with Venomous X is good. I use this one with my Ven X.
