## Overview

The ARCTIC MX-6 thermal paste delivers 20% improved thermal conductivity over its predecessor, MX-4, ensuring lower CPU and GPU temperatures right after application. Its non-conductive, non-capacitive formula guarantees safe use without risk of electrical damage, while its thick, stable consistency prevents leakage and pump-out effects. Designed for versatile use across CPUs, graphics cards, and consoles, MX-6 offers long-lasting durability and comes with an authenticity check to ensure genuine performance-grade quality.

## Description

Product Description Simply the Paste The ARCTIC MX-6 is a carbon filler-based thermal paste and 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. 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. Proven quality We are proud of our thermal pastes. With over 20 years of experience in the PC cooling market the MX-6 was developed with the goal to offer a first-class product. The optimized formula is based on the MX-4. The focus was on versatile application possibilities and an easy-to-use consistency. Versatile range of applications With its new composition, MX-6 is the suitable thermal compound for many application scenarios. Excellent non-drying and non-bleeding properties ensure consistent long-term performance. Its viscosity prevents leakage due to the pump-out effect. It's also suitable for direct-die cooling scenarios which occur, for example, with graphics cards or console processor GPUs. 100 % original through Authenticity Check To ensure that your paste is genuine, there is the ARCTIC Authenticity Check. This allows every product to be reliably verified. A counterfeit offers neither the performance nor the durability of the original ARCTIC pastes. Easy application MX-6 is neither electrically conductive nor capacitive. This eliminates the risk of short circuits or discharges, which can cause serious damage to components if care is not taken. The thermal paste is also free of liquid metal components, which can often lead to discoloration, abrasion or corrosion damage to the radiator bottom. Available in several versions ARCTIC MX-6 is available in package sizes from 2 to 8 grams. Resealable syringes prevent the paste from drying out and facilitate dispensing. Alternatively, the variants with MX Cleaner are available. These enable simple and residue-free cleaning of the contact surfaces. The cleaner consists of 100% Limonene, a natural substance obtained from citrus essential oil.

Review: Excellent thermal paste – reliable and easy to use - I used the ARCTIC MX-6 (2g) thermal paste when installing a new CPU cooler and it worked very well. Temperatures improved compared to the stock paste, and everything has stayed stable under load. The paste has a thick consistency, which means it stays in place and spreads properly when you mount the cooler. It’s designed to achieve lower thermal resistance than older versions, helping transfer heat more efficiently. The pressure from the heatsink spreads it evenly, so application is simple even if you’re not very experienced. One thing I like is that it’s non-conductive, so there’s no risk of short circuits if a small amount spreads outside the CPU area. It’s also long-lasting and doesn’t dry out quickly, which means you won’t need to replace it often. The 2g tube is enough for several applications, which makes it good value. The only minor downside is that it’s quite thick compared to some other pastes, so it can be harder to spread manually. It’s best applied with a small dot and letting the cooler pressure distribute it. Overall, a high-quality thermal paste that performs well and is easy to use. Highly recommended if you want reliable cooling for a CPU or GPU.
Review: Stay cool, Arctic - I never really bought into the idea that premium thermal pastes outperformed standard/budget ones by much until I used the stock paste from my current heatsink (Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120) and found it to not perform as I would have hoped. I decided to purchase this paste to see if it could improve my performance at all and WOW what a difference it made! ~10 degrees cooler under full load was a major improvement and put me to where I expected to be with the cooling solution I chose. The quality of this paste is excellent - it's quite wet so bear that in mind when using it. It is easy to apply thanks to the syringe style applicator and was easily removed with an alcohol wipe when I inevitably made a mistake and had to take the CPU + Cooler assembly apart! Overall, I'm really impressed with this product and I love that you can buy it in this smaller amount - most companies will try and sell you a tube with more than you need which leads to waste (I have managed to lose or accidentally throw away multiple big tubes of thermal paste over the years) so the fact you pay less for a tube with around 3 applications worth is really handy and good value for money, I highly recommend this product!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many applications for a 2g syringe?**
A: Can not say for sure but used it on a Ryzen 7 and I would guess there might be 3-4 application total. Possibly more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Made my PS4 pro usable again
*by M***E on 10 December 2025*

Purchased alongside some thermal pads to rejuvenate my PS4 pro. This is quality stuff. Before this, it was like having a jet engine in the room. I tried a generic paste before this, and it made little if any difference. This was a bit trickier to apply as its so thick and it didn't want to stick to the CPU, but as long as you go slow and keep it thin then you'll get there eventually. My PS4 is now silent.
