MX-6 (4 g, incl. 6 MX Cleaner) - Ultimate Performance Thermal Paste for CPU, Consoles, Graphics Cards, laptops, Very high Thermal Conductivity, Long Durability, Non-Conductive

I purchased the ARCTIC MX-6 thermal paste to replace older paste during routine CPU maintenance and to improve thermal performance in a desktop system. Intended use: Reapplying thermal compound during CPU cooler installation and general system maintenance. Packaging and contents: The package includes 4 g of MX-6 thermal paste along with ARCTIC MX Cleaner wipes, which is convenient for removing old paste before application. The syringe design allows for controlled dispensing without excess waste. Application experience: MX-6 is easy to apply and spreads evenly under mounting pressure. The consistency is slightly thicker than some pastes, which helps keep it in place during installation without making it difficult to work with. Thermal performance: After installation, CPU temperatures were stable and slightly improved compared to the older paste it replaced. Idle and load temperatures remained consistent during extended use, with no noticeable pump-out or degradation over time. Ease of maintenance: The included cleaner simplifies prep work, and the paste does not harden quickly, making future removal manageable. Limitations: This is not a liquid metal compound, so users seeking maximum possible thermal performance may want to look elsewhere. For most air- and liquid-cooled setups, however, performance is more than sufficient. Overall experience: MX-6 has performed reliably in daily use and provided consistent thermal results without complications during installation. Conclusion: ARCTIC MX-6 is a solid choice for routine CPU or GPU thermal paste replacement, offering easy application, dependable performance, and useful included cleaning materials.

This is one of the best thermal pastes I’ve used. Application is smooth and precise with the included applicator, and it spreads evenly. The cooling performance is great — I noticed a drop in CPU temperatures almost immediately. What really impressed me was the included cleaner — very effective at removing old paste cleanly without damaging components. If you’re doing a PC build or upgrade, this kit is a no-brainer. Great value and performance.

The thermal paste is quite thick, because of this I used a lot of it thinking I would need it, in any case, it works very well, my temperatures dropped quite a lot and have remained stable. The cleaning wipes are amazing, they simply destroy the old thermal paste, even if it is hard and stuck to the CPU/Cooler. The complaints about the smell are a bit exaggerated if you compare it to how well the product works, in my case the smell only lasted about a day, it is indeed relatively strong but it just smells like cleaning products. I recommend that you dispose of the wipes in a bag that you then close to properly dispose of them and the smell, that little wipe WILL keep the smell for quite some time (people are probably throwing the used wipes in a nearby bin and that's why they can't get rid of the smell)

Cools down my cpu very well. The smell kinda lingers because of the wipes it comes with, but overall very useful. comes with a good amount, but I had trouble spreading it out on the cpu.

I recently took the CPU cooling fan off the CPU on my computer, to clean all the dust out of the cooking fins, so I decided to get fresh thermal paste to put it back together. This worked perfectly. The kit had everything needed, it was easy to apply, and now the fan is keeping the CPU temperature down, without having to run at full speed.

I used Arctic MX-6 to repaste the CPU and GPU on my HP Victus gaming laptop, and overall the results were excellent. Before the repaste, my laptop would overheat and even shut down during heavy workloads like Microsoft Flight Simulator. After applying MX-6, temperatures dropped a lot: • CPU temps stayed well below throttling • GPU temps became very stable • No more shutdowns during long gaming sessions One important thing to note: The paste is very thick and the first bit that comes out of the tube can feel dry and stringy. I recommend discarding the first small amount and then using the paste that comes out after — it becomes smooth and works perfectly. Once applied (pea/ball method), it spreads well under pressure and performs as expected. The paste is non-conductive and feels high quality. Overall, great thermal performance, especially for laptops, just be aware of the thick consistency at first.

For 10 dollars I think its worth having the cleaning wipes since its a pain to clean without them, it works well to keep my CPU cool and there's more then enough then just 1 CPU. No issues whatsoever although time will have to tell if it doesn't dry up.

The MX-6 thermal paste performs very well in heat transfer and paste application. Temperature drops were noticed immediately under load and re pasting the CPU was very simple as the paste has a slightly higher viscosity compared to MX-4. Spreading the paste for full coverage was fairly simple and quick. The MX cleaning wipes are a double edge sword compared to iso propyl alcohol. While it does a great job breaking down the old paste for clean up, it also makes the paste very runny. It does not affect any clean up per se but it does get a little messy and stain a lot of things like automotive anti seize. Finally as noted by many people in the review section, the odor of the cleaner is definitely strong. I highly recommend this job be done somewhere ventilated and throw the wipes directly in the outside trash can.

Recensione: La ARCTIC MX‑6 è una pasta termica di fascia alta, ideale per CPU, GPU, console e notebook. Rispetto alla MX‑4 offre prestazioni termiche superiori (fino al 20% in più), con una consistenza facile da stendere e non serve un tempo di assestamento dopo l’applicazione. È sicura perché non conduce elettricità e mantiene le prestazioni per anni senza seccarsi. Il formato da 4 g è sufficiente per più applicazioni (io stimo 5-6 applicazioni) e i 6 panni MX Cleaner inclusi sono un plus: rimuovono in pochi secondi la vecchia pasta senza lasciare residui e hanno un profumo fantastico che rimarra nella stanza per giorni 😋. Nei miei test ho visto temperature più basse di 1‑3°C rispetto a paste di fascia media, soprattutto sotto carico prolungato. In sintesi: facile da applicare, prestazioni elevate, kit completo. Perfetta sia per chi fa manutenzione saltuaria sia per chi assembla o aggiorna spesso i propri sistemi.

Good thermal paste The best on the market quality price Good added cleaning papers.

exactement conforme à mes attentes. Livraison rapide et soignée. Je recommande !

Muito boa pasta térmica, funciona como esperado, e as toalhitas são muito boas para limpar pasta que tenha que retirar, muito bom pack..
