I have a brand new tube of Noctua NT-H1 and a 6 month old, half full tube of Arctic Silver 5 thermal compound.
My question is: Which should I use? Which one will yeild better results? I know Arctic Silver 5 is the good old-good old of thermal paste, but will the noctua thermal paste be better?
I'm going to be using this on my Bitfenix Prodigy build that I will assemble tomorrow.
Specs:
ASUS p8z77-i deluxe
Intel i7-3770k (XIgmatek Dark Knight)
16gb ripjaw x ram
EVGA GTX 760 ACX SC
120gb OCZ Agility 3 SSD
1.5TB Seagate Barracude
All in a cute lil bitfenix prodigy.
