As we can see from both results that at idle both the NT-H1 and AS5 perform the same even at 3ghz the load temps were the same between the two TIMs but its not until we get to the higher overclocked 3.6ghz that Noctua's NT-H1 starts to pull ahead over the AS5 by 2c and we believe that if we tested at an even higher overclock would have shown the Noctua TIM to yield even better results then what the AS5 would be able to achieve.

"With Noctua's NT-H1 on the scene AS5 is dropped even further down the latter of top performing TIMs and with Noctua's reputation at building only the highest quality products, once again stands firm behind their name and their new TIM product and we here at PCFlip look forward to using more of their TIM on upcoming reviews and projects."
