Thermax is claiming to have an even better Thermal Grease that Artic Silver 5, and to
back up those claims they are offering a free sample.

Just send them an email, you will get confirmation.
 
finally , this is a good deal.

i'm in. right now im using zalman copper/alu heatsink on a64 3200+ @ 2.7ghz .. I doubt this will help me o/c higher, but it might run more efficiently 🙂

Thermal paste alone doesn't help that much. The differance between the best stuff and worst stuff is typically only a couple degrees.
Wether or not you can hit fx-57 speeds (btw there's architechural differances to think of as well, a real fx-57 has other improvements besides just speed) will depend more on whats your bottleneck stopping you from overclocking more.
Is it heat on the cpu? Heat on the chipset? Have you overvolted? Is the chipset the bottleneck? The memory? (PC3200 may not overclock terribly well). Has the CPU reached its absolute limit? Do you need a better cooler like the XP-120?
Etc.

BTW, any deal for free thermal paste is good. And even if its only nearly as good as artic silver, its still a hot deal 🙂
