Arctic Silver 5 for me. I bought one tube 18 months ago, and I've used it for almost 6 cooler mountings, and it hasn't run out yet.

Noctua stuff. I'm the main PC builder for the IT company I work for, and we use only noctua coolers. Each cooler comes with a tube of thermal paste. Last time I counted, I had 27 tubes of noctua thermal paste. I think it's a lot more now...

I used some Coolermaster TIM, the cheapest one that was available at the time of buying.
