I put ICD on my northbridge and CPU today. Easier to work with than I thought it would be. Yeah, it's thick and hard to get out of the tube, but at least the pressure you apply is consistent. It won't all shoot out like MX-2. So for the CPU, I can't say if it's better or worse. I just switched to a t9800, so I have no comparison. It maxes out at around the same as my p8400, but it idles maybe 10 degrees higher, which is still pretty low. So it's an adequate TIM, to say the very least. On the northbridge, temps look the same. Takes a little longer to heat up though. Not a big deal, as I'm betting the heatsink is the limiting factor there. The thing that makes it better than my previous solutions is that I just squirt some on the northbridge and I'm done. It was very easy to put it on. I highly recommend this stuff.
