Please dont use AS5.

 

MX-4 is my personal recommendation, but NH-T1 and IC-diamond are also very good.

NH-H1, MX4, AS5(It's old) are the ones that i would use

This ^ but DO NOT get liquid pro. If it is left on the cpu for to long it will fuse the cooler and the CPU together.

My vote is for Gelid GC Extreme.  I have some and I love it.  Dropped CPU temps by 2-3C depending on voltage, and GPU temps by 4C.

I use IC Diamond for everything with an IHS, and Antec Formula 7 for everything without. Formula 7 isn't too great but its cheap.

Should i get Antec Formula 7? That's the only good thermal paste that i can get right now.

Has IC diamond ever scratched anything? seems to be a lot of people saying it does. 

 

I use mx4. it's good stuff. want to try out notcua's too. seems to be very good as well

I personally use these.

 

Tuniq TX2/4

Noctua NT-H1

 

and a new introduction

 

Deepcool z9 this one for cheaps kinda has similar temps when I had my noctua nh-t1 cpu temps when both oc/stock. dunno why but seeing as it is and for the price which is 50% less than the NH-T1 kinda good (might be different to where you live though).

 

I don't really look at deepcool products but that one just caught my eye when I was shopping in the mall the other day. well don't know about after a month or so but I'll see first if the temps will go higher in the long run. so don't take that advice about the z9 out yet >.<

Live your life like a dream.
