    Anyone know where to get one of these from in Europe?

    HPM.de is out with no restocking date as yet and I'm desperate to get my hands on one.

    Thanks

    same here used MX-2 on my DFI X38 LT on SB/NB and PWM area and really nice low temps under load

    this is the stock stuff (Shinetsu X23-7783D ?) which i removed - pretty well applied on PWM area



    if it's Shinetsu X23-7783D, then its consistency is pretty much same as MX-2 TIM.
