Well I just got my eVGA 6800GS in today and I decided that I might as well throw some AS5 on the core, and replace the "thermal compound pads" that come stock on the GS. I cleaned up all the previous TIM and applied some AS5 to the core. When I went for my AS ceramique I realized I was out. So having no more I just decided to use some no name white stuff that came with my old ThermalTake HS. Now I was a wee bit generous with the white TIM and it oozed a little bit and it's touching a few points on the PCB. It looks like it might be bridging some contacts on the memory chips. I don't want to take any chances with my new card. So does anyone know if generic "white TIM" is electricly conductive or not? If I recall most generic white TIM is silicone based. Better be safe then sorry, right? 
Any input is of great value. Thanks in advance.
