I found this: https://flash.newegg.com/Product/9SIA59T2RD3509?icid=WP_0_12142016

I found no reviews. But is it any good? The specs seem decent, just not sure how it actually performs. Anyone know?

It's a generic paste. OEM quality. Nothing more.

Here, take a look:

" -30 ~ 280?" That's what they put when even they don't fucking know. You should just spend $5 and get some arctic silver 5.

AS5 is outdated, tho.

That's what they put when font encoding goes wrong and can't display the degree sign correctly... 9_9

 

OP: as @brokencross show, you can't do much more than 3C of a difference by paste choice unless going with metallic pastes, then you get some extra.

Meaning that, for a given kind of paste, brand choice has a marginal impact.
