The focus will be on some new Nanotherm products, but we rounded up some of the more common thermal compounds and see if the exotic stuff works better, or if it is simply hype.

Hell I'm still using ASII.

I like the results of that EXP.
I wonder if it will be better when it hits the shelfs?

I too have received samples from Nanotherm (ESG Associates), but I'm under an NDA to not disclose the particulars regarding said new products. Soon, they shall be compared to the other compounds in Part II of this review:

So we shall finally have a totally comprehensive comparative review.

For those that say all thermal compounds are the same, I say go back to school - for they aren't. Not by a long shot. A good thermal compound can make/break a good overclock.

I'm glad to see that someone else has placed some importance upon this very overlooked (but crucial) aspect of PC building and yes, overclocking. <|;^)>

Good review, very thorough by running 2 pc's for that length of time.
