It's adequate but not as good as Arctic Silver 5 but that's not what's going to stop you from reaching 3 GHz. What do you mean 3 GHz, you mean with a mobile? With liquid nitrogen maybe and only to boot briefly.
Although few lucky ones got it to 2.8, it's still great to hit 2.5 with them.

It was stable only long enough to take the screenie.From what I have read, the SP97 is better by about 3 to 4 C than a SLK-900 which is usually considered as next best.
For Tbred B/Barton on air, that 3 to 4 C would translate to around 1.2 - 1.6% at around 2.5 GHz overclocking, which is around 30 - 40 MHz.
