Is there a big difference between AS2 and AS3?

AS2 is my favorite...im not a big fan of AS3.... for some reason even after a week of letting it set up it still gives me worse temps then AS2.

arctic alumina would be the safest, for video cards and cpu's, as2/3 will kill any electrical device if it "runs", i like to use alumina to replace the compound manufacturers add on the vc core.

I use AS3 on my P4, TI4200, and RAMSINKS. Simply the best.

other: Type 44 HSF compound. it is non conductive, gets me 2c lower than AS2, and a hell of a lot easier to apply and clean up.
