ARCTIC MX-4 (incl. Spatula, 4 g) - Premium Performance Thermal Paste for All Processors (CPU, GPU - PC, PS4, Xbox), Very high Thermal Conductivity, Long Durability, Safe Application, Non-Conductive

A1

There are a lot of great thermal compounds on the market, but none of them come close to MX-4 for the price. Ive overhauled 2 laptops and 2 desktops so far this year, and I used MX-4 on all of them. I noticed a drastic improvement in cooling after re-pasting both laptop CPUs, and theyre still running as cool as they were the day I put them back together. I installed new processors in both desktops, and neither have experienced issues with cooling (even though they are both small form factor cases with powerful CPUs and GPUs installed under heavy work loads) after using this thermal paste for the re-builds. In other words, its 4 for 4 so far for me, and I have yet to see a drop in performance.

I recently replaced the thermal compound on my Asus Dual GTX 1070 with Arctics MX-4 compound and the results are great. I went from around 85°C to around 67°C average load temps, resulting in a much cooler, quieter pc. Definitely recommended!

Can’t beat this stuff

This stuff works awesome just be carefull an dont over apply. Had to change out cpu cooler an could not get the stock cpu fan off the cpu had to slide it off.

This stuff is strangely sticky, which causes problems when your fan is refusing to let go of your CPU and tugs the entire thing out. Be careful when you eventually change it again for that in particular. Lost my last CPU due to that stickiness hauling out the CPU and bending pins beyond repair.

I moved the components of my old build to a new case with more space and fans. Figured Id reseat the heat sink as well, and spotted this highly rated paste. The combined change added 10 degrees C of headroom. There is no way this paste didnt help.

I have been reassembling an old netbook and upgrading the processor to something more powerful (Frankencomputer as I call it). After I put the computer together, I noticed it was overheating, freezing, and shutting down. I did not have thermal paste, just a heatsink and saw my temps running upwards of 94C then shutting down. After applying thermal paste to my cpus and gpu, the core temperature rarely exceeds 85C even when pushing the older computer. On average it runs around 80-82C when it used to be running around 90-92C before overheating. This is a drastic decrease in temp and since I have applied the paste I have not had any temperature shutdowns/freezes. This paste was also super easy to apply. I just used the pea method and reattached the heatsinks. No curing time needed. For 12$, it was a great play and I have some left for other projects. Get it!

Es una excelente pasta, se nota muchísimo la diferencia pues con la anterior que traía el disipador rondaba por los 60° maximo mi procesador, después de aplicar esta pasta bajó a 50 y en idle ronda los 40°

I only had to use the paste spreader they include for my graphics card. A pea sized drop is enough to keep it on average 10-15 degrees Celsius cooler than other cheap paste Ive personally used. Artic mx is my go to brand for any thermal paste needs. Its cheap and effective and does what its supposed to do.
