Best Answer

White board is 1/4" to 3/4" in thickness. Green board contains oilbased additives in the paper that provides moisture resistance. It's often used in bathrooms or high humidity areas. Firecode or Type "X" has different thickness and multiple layers of wallboard. Perlite, vermiculite, and boric acid are added to improve fire resistance.
The differences are in what's added to the basic drywall, fire retardants and anti mildew products mainly.

How do you do a closet?

Get yourself a few tubes of Green Glue and a couple of sheets of drywall. Apply the Green Glue to the inside walls of the closet and then screw the new drywall layers right over top. Use some acoustical caulk to seal the seams between the layers of drywall and then repaid the inside (if you need to). You'll notice a significant decrease in sound coming from the walls around the closet.
