Thermal grease (also called CPU grease, heat paste, heat sink compound, heat sink paste, thermal compound, thermal gel, thermal interface material, or thermal paste) is a thermally conductive (but usually electrically insulating) You should not have an issue if you mount the cooler properly onto the cpu.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. It is only thermally conductive
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes and very easy to use
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No nor do you want it to be. A heat sink normally sits on top of the CPU to pull the heat away from the CPU and help dissipate the heat. The paste just insures a better contact between the 2 parts.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.it s heat transfer layer from back of cpu to fan heatsink
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It is available in stock at most Best Buy stores. Go to BestBuy.com and put in your zip code in the store locator and choose a store. Then do a search for Insignia NS-PCTC8 and click on the store location and it will tell you if it is available at that location within an hour. If so, it is in stock. You can go pick it up.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This is a thermal conductive product, spread in a very thin layer, and as such would not provide a high amount of resistance to current flow. I've not measured its' resistance vs thickness, so can't state how electrically conductive it is. Every material will conduct electricity if the voltage is high enough.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It is heat conductive mostly used to assist heat getting off of a processor chip and into a cooling heat sync. It fills the tiny gaps. The application tells you to keep the paste on the chip face and not over do it. It has silver oxide in its composition and may be conductive.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Thermal paste is electrically conducive, yes. Is it "electronically" conducive? Im not sure if that's really a thing.
