This should be the closest to a 7900gt. I would probably go with the ceramique for a gpu though. (non-conductive and all)
Same as appling it on cpu without Ihs. Put some as5 on a core and then use razor (or anything) to spread thin layer over whole core.

Ya, ceramique or mx-1 work pretty much the same (some people say they work better). You could always use the method i use for my cpu, small dab to core, spread by heatsink pressure.

My 9800pro had as5 applied to it several times and no shorts. However I spent $180 on that card, and a bit more on the one I have now, So I am a little more paranoid now :)
as5 will be ok as long you don't get any on little chips around core.
Been using AS products from back in the AS2 days on a high dollar GF2 Ultra till current. AS5 was on it before Septh and it was fine.
