To test the TX-2 I recorded both idle and load temperatures while using the stock AMD heatsink running a 120mm Nexus fan. Idle temperatures were taken after leaving the system sitting for 30 minutes and load temperatures were taken after stressing the system for 30 minutes while being at 100% load. Results are graphed and discussed below.

For my particular setup I noticed a four degree temperature drop when the system was in idle state and a two degree drop when at full load for 30 minutes. For those doing heavy overclocking, two degrees of their load temperatures can be critical in helping the processor maintain a healthy temperature. Keep in mind that performance of this thermal grease will vary depending on your cooling setup in your case as well as your CPU chip itself and how hot it gets at load. For me, this temperature drop was certainly worth the few dollars it cost to achieve it.

Conclusion:
For a mere $6 Canadian, the Tuniq TX-2 thermal grease provides an excellent way to shave a few degrees off your CPU temperatures. For those making further cooling upgrades in their system, it would also be a great addition on chipset heatsinks and video cards as well. For the money, there's no reason not to grab a syringe of Tuniq TX-2 the next time you're at the computer store!

Pros:
Not electrically conductive
Great performance
Decent amount included per syringe
Cheap price

Cons:
Including application instructions for different chip types would be helpful
