only other ones I have used

MX-2 - non conductive if you are worried about electrical shorts (fat fingers )

Only ever used Arctic silver 5 or MX-2.
Personally, Arctic silver for small things like CPU, MX-2 for larger things like GPU and ram on a VGA card.
Purely down to getting 2-3x as much in a tube of MX-2 though.
Can't say I've noticed a big enough difference in temps to worry about it.
Get whichever is cheaper at the time imo.
