I know AS3 is the choice of champions around here, but I saw this stuff available new at SVC and picked up a tube of the copper when I got a Swifty and some AS3. Anyone tried it vs the AS3? :)

might be okay, but its not really copper ;)... since its only 10% copper... Mostly silicone + other metals (i'd guess zink) and carbon.

if you see it from a scentific perspective without any tests, i'll say AS3 is better
silver has a better heat conduction rate than copper
if i am correct silver is 419k/cm^3 and copper is 398k/cm^3
