Which thermal pads are best/cost effective

Alright guys just took apart my cecha01 ps3 to look what kind of shape its in (don't want a ylod) and it was actually in great shape had a aps-226 power supply and to my surprise 19-blade fan in it, and maybe even more surprising is that the thermal paste wasn't dried out but i did notice there was def. a little to much when it was applied (ps3 has never been opened until today and no heating issues just precaution).. i am ordering a paste been looking through a lot of info and hear good things about Arctic Silver 5, Arctic MX-4, and Tuniq TX-2.. think i'm going to go with the MX-4, but i also want to replace the thermal pads but am having a tough time find much info on what i should get.. this is what i found here what do you guys thing of those? or if you can point me in the right direction to what you guys have used and what has worked well thanks!
