I just bought the 462 heat sink and with it was a little tube of thermal paste this paste appears to have some type of grit or sand in it (fortunately I use ultra silver) this im sure would reek havoc on a cpu and the hsf the tube was marked as follow`s

this is the response i recieved

Thank you for notifying us.

You could call AOS 888 number and ask.. , but I don't believe this is normal.

This compound is supposedly the highest quality grease (except for Arctic Silver).
