Was looking at these off Newegg? Which one should I get? I was looking at price and volume, plus reviews as well.

(I'm really eying the first one because of the shear volume of it and reviews as well.

What all are you going to use thermal paste for? My CPU took half the tube they sent with the heatsink, not sure a Tub would be needed. Unless there is some magical way to use it to cure cancer or something i'm missing!

Rule 34?

Rule 34? can never have to much? lol

Always thought the After Market is better. From going to LanOC been hearing some of them say cooler master and artic silver is some good stuff!

I just did 3 installs with www.newegg.com/Product...6835100009 Two of the heatsinks even had exposed heatpipes which required me to fill in the grooves with compound to ensure even spread across the CPU. A tub is a bit extreme unless you're building 2 or more systems per day...

My criteria:
1: Thermally Conductive (derp?)
2: Electrically Nonconductive.
3: Cheap

I buy small tubes because I always lose them between builds. So anytime I buy a HSF, I add a tube to my cart.

LOL. I went with the first tub (first listing), its a lot, I thought it was cheap. I had a 10 Dollar NewEgg Gift Certificate from when I bought a new proc over christmas. And I seem to have inherited 2 other familys jobs off pc support etc. One moved, the other isnt really capable anymore. lol

Appreciate all the info guys!
