Arctic Silver 5 is your best bang for buck compound.

Best paste in order is like this.

 

Thermal Grizzly, Gelid GC Extreme then NT-H1.

My personal experience with nt h1 has been very good so far, so i would recommend that. Temps get slightly better over the course of a few weeks

Not really.

Prolimatech PK-3 is pretty beast, only about half a C worse than the Gelid which is also very very good.

MX-4 is one of the best value pastes you can get for the money.

 

AS5 isn't fantastic IMHO, has a cure time a well.

 

The best paste is probably something like Grizzly but you'll be expected to fork out for it.

Arctic Silver 5 was quite good -- three or five years ago.

There are better thermal compounds available since the debut of AS5 -- new improvements over the years.

 

I sworn to AS5 up until...about two years ago. 

Out of the thermal compounds I own (and have tried), the Arctic Cooling MX-4 stands out, though it is only marginally better than the Antec Formula 7  (the application process for MX-4 is much easier; Formula 7 is THICK).
