    Wow, you not that far from me. I like the use Arctic Silver Ceramique. Maybe not the best, but it works good and it's non conductive. You can also pick it up and Radio Shack. Or if you run over the Micro Center they have it there also.

    I recently built a new system with th z97, i7 4790k, and the 212 evo. I used the thermal compound that came with the evo. Seems fine with temps not going over 41. Good luck!

    Went with prolimatech 1. I must have bought it when I ran out of the AS5. So far so good, but I am waiting for my second fan to come from cooler master. Right now at 4.2ghz on p95 temps are pretty (high 70's).
