There is no substitute for thermal paste. Arctic silver 5 is the best you can buy and actually lowers temps.

Go to radioshack and buy some thermal paste or buy some from whatever store you have that sells it.

Doing anything else will have a bad outcome.

Its never good to use temporary fixes for things like this, It can cause even more damage, your Gpu can burn out in a matter of seconds
