Artic alumina, conductive or not?

[Stallion]

I just put some ramsinks on my GF3 Ti200 and I installed them with Artic alumina thermal adhesive. Is this stuff conductive. I realised after I was done that I had got some on the connectors that run along side the ram chips. I thought I read some where were this was a no no... The Artic silver site says it is non conductive though.. Do I maybe have artic alumina confused with another AS product? Did I ruin my card and no need to go get a GF3Ti500?

Thanks.

I'd say the best way to be sure is to take a multimeter and put a little goop on a peice of glass or something. Then set the multimeter to check for conductivity and try it out...

Sounds reasonable enough. Thanks for the tip.

I've heard from many sources that it isn't conductive, so I wouldn't be too worried, but still clean it off if you have the chance.
