Recommended Thermal Compound for CPU?

[PCPartPickerPro9171787]

From what I hear, it is totally worth it to buy your own thermal compound for the CPU. What do you guys recommended and why?

Arctic Silver 5

If you're on a Devil's Canyon CPU its not really worth it to switch.

i don't think it is worth it you get a temp dif of 1 to 4 degrees c

I also use Arctic Silver 5, originally used the pre-applied stuff on my H80i GT but now that I replaced it with Arctic Silver 5 i'm seeing about 5-6 degree difference, which could make or break an overclock.

Why does it not matter with the Devils canyon?
