As far as thermal grease goes, the Tuniq TX-2 is at the top of the list as it has an advantage over its competitors. That advantage is the way it spreads out over the processor. Some thermal compounds spread out like cold butter and get all clumped up, but the Tuniq TX-2 spreads out smooth like peanut butter and doesn't clump up at all. One small ribbon of paste will spread out evenly and easily over the processor.

All thermal paste is relatively the same, and as long as you use something between your processor and heatsink (besides a thermal pad) you're good. Or is it?

Here at HardwareLogic we don't play games or use smoke and mirrors to try to make products look good. We push these products to limit and compare them against formidable opponents. We strive to give our readers true results, based on value and performance. Today is no different. We didn't pamper this new compound. we put TX-2 up against the most popular grease company around, Arctic Silver. We will get to this is a head-to-head-to-head match up between Arctic Silver 5, Arctic Silver Lumiere and Tuniq's TX-2 soon enough, but first let's a closer look at TX-2.

The average web-surfing, email-checking net slave doesn't think much about thermal paste. Thermal performance probably never enters their mind until they get a whiff of burning silicon, if then. Now, consider your average enthusiast. They probably worry about temps, but not to the extreme of buying branded, high-end thermal paste. Even among the enthusiast community, many are happy with stock cooling. However there is a sub-culture inside our sub-culture. They crave MHz like an addict craves smack. Every single detail of their computer is designed to eek out that little extra fps or to shave off a millisecond rendering time. They route cables, install fans, mod their PC's and even buy fancy thermal compound to get their CPU's a degree Celsius cooler. Today, I'm reviewing Tuniq TX-2 thermal paste. I normally use Arctic Silver 5. Let's see how it stacks up.

The first time I turned my computer on with the TX-2 paste, I noticed that the temperatures were better than they had been with fully 'burnt in' Arctic Silver 5. So it would appear that the TX-2 needs little or no burn in time to reach peak performance. That is no small feat!

Tuniq launches a new thermal compound that should be available September 10, 2007. We put it to the test against Arctic Silver 5 and the older TX-1 compound to see how easy it is to work with, how easy it cleans up and how well it performs.
