Conclusion

As with everything, you get what you pay for. Arctic Silver 5 is better, but costs more. Not only that, AC 5 isn’t as user friendly. The Akasa 460 thermal compound seems like a nice beginner product that eases you into installation and usage; and for a damn good price and acceptable performance.

If someone new to the computing world were to ask me what thermal compound to use, I would have no hesitations in prescribing a wide tube of Akasa’s 460 thermal compound.

Pros Cons
Useful instuctions and paste spreader Not the best performer
Inexpensive Not sticky; installation issues

I'd like to thank Akasa for providing us with the heatpaste.
