I put OCZ Freeze on my 4870 and my temps are exactly the same as they were. Its not a reference card though, its Sapphires "Toxic Edition" with their custom PCB and cooler so maybe they already had some good stuff slapped in there from the factory.

If I use aftermarket paste, I'm definitely using Arctic Silver 5, heard lots of great things about that.

I'd have a look at OCZ Freeze also. I've seen a couple of comparisons, and it tends to beat AS5 by a couple of degrees under load.

In all seriousness, ICD7 is good. It's diamond-based, and diamond has thermal conductivity way better than silver.
