Thermal paste is a compound used on electronic components to help transfer
heat from the component to an attached heatsink. Plain, simple, white
thermal paste has been in use for twenty plus years. Arctic Silver markets
a form of thermal paste that contains a silver oxide that supposedly
conducts heat better because of the silver (?) content.
Thermal grease is the thick petroleum based goop that is used on your car to
lubricate the wheel bearings. it has a high viscosity rating needed to
withstand the extreme temperatures produced by the friction between
bearings.
THE STUFF USED ON COMPUTER HEATSINKS IS NOT THERMAL GREASE.
IT'S THERMAL PASTE.
