lithium based thermal paste

[chesss]

Hey
zaada hasna mat..

i have this grease which states "good structural thermal and oxidation stability " , its lithium soap based, can it be as a thermal paste?? for the cpu?

Its originally for auto-industrial use..

i am asking this , coz I read on another forum a guy used toothpaste and savlon as thermal paste

Actually "NO"
There is a difference between the Thermal paste and Grease.
the grease's use if for lubrication but thermal paste is used for transferring heat.
There is some degree which what we call boiling point when thermal paste has higher boiling point and grease has lower.

u can get Zinc oxide thermal pastes for rs. 10 (i'm not joking)...so why would u wanna experimnt with that grease
i had read about that guy who tried toothpaste...its performance was as good as Arctic Silver thermal paste, but the prob was it only lasts about 24hrs...
