errr dont use that Nepali paste as thermal grease, atleast get a CM HTK-002 for around 150 would be enough for single pc for almost a year or even more if it stays good.

u get that chunna anywhere...

also available in normal electrical and electronics shops

most people fail to understand the actual purpose of HS compound

the only main purpose is contact..

(just try the temp w/o a compound

mine was

dow corming - 31-33

chunna(its actually a white ceramic grease) - 32-34

nothing - 52-55

other factors like heat conduction(which only results in 2-3 deg diff) comes later...

(here is where high perf compound like artic silver comes in picture)

Thermal transfer compound comparison

just check the graph at the end of the article

imho the chunna is the best HS paste afaik price to perf is concerned...

just 2-3 degrees difference

Well the very same CHUNA can corrode the heat spreader over the time & the heat produced by the CPU just works as a catalyst for faster corrosion, also there is risk of melting of chuna & spilling over the board thus damaging your system...
