This 'bonding' issue is pretty much a non-issue IMO. I've had it 'bond' my lapped CPU and block together before also. A simple twist and it snapped apart. It's not like you will need a chisel or something to seperate them. That said, I love this stuff, noticable improvement in temperatures, and can really transfer higher heat loads into your block when running higher vcores and speeds compared to standard thermal pastes such as AS5 I've found. A bit tricky putting it on, you can put too little on at times, but with good 'wetting' without going overboard so that you get a some runoff, LM is awesome stuff. Q-Tips work great for swabbing it on if you dont mind a bit of lint in the interface. Now if I didnt feel like some junkie with that syringe around....

Great review as always!

I still have many in my home, performance is very good, but some bought from other country are old formulae, it will dry and then the CPU sticked with the waterblock.

Disadvantage is not easy to remove, always has some residual on the CPU IHS and then the words on the IHS can't be seen again

PS: I use it for my lapped CPU, so no problem
