Then, how do you explain this?

The silver one contains more paste and is cheaper and the silicon once contains less paste and it's significantly more expensive.
Why?

Caution:
We do not recommend using Arctic Silver 5 on the older slot type Intel Xeon processors with large multiple square inch CPU to heatsink interfaces. The huge contact area and large gaps between the processor and the heatsink require a thermal pad or thick mesh-reinforced paste. Arctic Silver 5 can be used on socket type Xeons without a problem.
Will it work on a mobile Intel Pentium III Tualatin?

This will work with all types of thermal compound, right?
Thanks
