Arctic Starts Selling Thermal Pads You Cut to Shape
ARCTIC Thermal Pad bridges problem-free even large spaces. After multiple awards with its thermal pastes, ARCTIC is now offering thermal pads as well. As perfect gap filler the Thermal Pad provides an optimal heat transfer and bridges even large height differences and uneven surfaces.
Often it is troublesome to cool diverse components like memory chips, CPUs, MCUs, DSPs and other ICs densely packed. Different heights prevent a proper contact to the heatsink and thus make it useless. The thermal pad is perfect to close even large spaces completely. Due to its low hardness this silicon pad adapts ideally to uneven surfaces, also at low pressure and thus ensures the best possible heat dissipation. In the comparison test the Thermal Pad with its special filler and a high thermal conductivity can demonstrate its performance and leaves the competitors behind.

It would be worse, mind you AS5 is just OK and takes a long time to cure not to mention the fact that it's probably conductive. Thermal pads are meant for water blocks and vram chips. Use some GC-Extreme or Prolimatech PK-3 for direct die paste applications!

arctic silver 5 is not conductive..................
I do have to ask though, if it's worse, which is what i would think, why would the pads be better for water blocks? because they stick?

Late to the party. But I guess it's nice to have another vendor to choose from
