Good compound for Hyper 212 Plus?

[jemm]

I have to order some compound for my i7 920 on an ASUS P6T. I heard a lot about Arctic Silver, is it good for the Hyper 212 Plus?

Check out the Tom's Hardware roundup:

Arctic Silver will do just fine.

The stock paste is only 2C worse then AS5.

As davcon said, the cooler comes with its own paste that isn't too shabby.

How you appy it generally makes more difference than what you apply.

I use these suggestions:

A good compound would be the one that came with it. AS5 sucks in my opinion. takes over 100hrs to cure. If your gonna buy one buy TX3.

I am getting compound because the one that come with the cooler has finished.

Thank you all for the suggestions.

Off topic, how did you find the coolermaster stuff. I went to use it once and found it was very dry and almost crumbly(maybe it was bad, i still have at least 3 more tubes of it.). I broke out some MX3(i think The Arctic cooling stuff) and it worked very. AS5 has NEVER let me down either tho.
