Dale,
Was there a temperature improvement by using the grease?
I've seen 7c+ reductions by using Arctic silver type compound on
processors instead of the stock melty pads sometimes provided.

Yes, the book says normal, but it's annoying. I fixed mine by taking the
heatsink off and using heatsink compound on it to the mating surface then I
used locking washers under the machine screws and tightened it down, be careful
not to over toque. The clicking is caused by the heatsink expanding and
contracting.
Good luck
