I recently bought a Silent Boost heatsink for my Athlon XP 2500+ and on the instructions it tells me to put this "High Thermal Conductivity Compound" on to the processor. I have heard that if I put cooling compound on the processor, I can kiss my warranty goodbye. Hence my worry: If I don't put this compound on the processor, will the heatsink still work properly?

If I figure out how to post images I will put one up.
