    arctic ceramique is better. Try to find that. It's also safer cuz it's not conductive.

    I have AS3 it's a great product, I hear that the ceramique produces even better temps.

    Ceramique is only $3.99 shipped. Don't even think twice about buying it.

    How much better is the ceramique than this Arctic Silver III I have? Like what will the temp difference be? I just ordered my SLK-900, SFII, and copper spaces/shim for my current rig! Woot! Now I am wondering if I should have goten this ceramique? Could I pick some of that stuff up at the local CompUSA, staples, or Best Buy?
    Friends don't let friends buy Dell.

    The testing that I've seen ([H]ardOCP among them) have all shown Ceramique to be ~5 degrees F cooler than AS3. Not a ton, but it's also cheaper and non-conductive, which makes it my first choice.
