ULTIMATE Performance Thermal Paste
20% Better Performance
With its improved composition, the ARCTIC MX-6 has a measurably lower thermal resistance than the MX-4. We measured the absolute thermal resistance of both pastes on our lab-testing machine, which is much more accurate than a CPU. Two factors are mainly relevant:
Conductivity
Minimum Bond Line thickness
A lower thermal resistance of the paste leads to a lower temperature difference between CPU and cooler.
Simply the Paste
The ARCTIC MX-6 reaches its maximum performance without burn-in, directly after application and distribution. It achieves all of this without any reputed ingredients, such as expensive diamond dust or various precious metal particles. The silicone gel used as a carrier enables optimal distribution, which is achieved through even contact pressure, for example when mounting the heat sink.
Easy Application
Thanks to its consistency, MX-6 is easy to apply even for beginners. In the video, we show how it can be applied to avoid air pockets between the processor and the cooler.
