About this deal

If you plan to use it on an AMD Ryzen CPU or larger surface, an alternate pattern or use of the included spatula is highly recommended. The Arctic MX-4 thermal paste is made of carbon microparticles that fill the microscopic dents on the surfaces of processor chips and cooler floors. It can cause corrosion, it is hard to apply, it can short out your other parts due to its conductive nature, and it will need to be re-applied much more often do to not having as long of a lifespan. If things ever get to the point where the small advantage that TG has over NT-H2 actually matters, it's probably time for more drastic measures than just a TIM change. In any case, it is once again a 120 mm fan that will be taking the top ranks in comparison tests with its performance characteristics.

If you wonder why the results were a few degrees different than the ones in my Noctua NH-D15S chromax. I know I've used it in multiple builds, even to repaste GPUs, and so far I didn't have a single issue. As thermal pastes go, MX-series compounds are reliable and perform better than most pre-applied thermal pastes. The too thick or too thin thermal paste would not help result in efficient thermal conductivity since too sparse or too thick to even spread out would be counterproductive.Arctic has supposedly already withdrawn these batches from circulation, but one needs to be cautious. No meu caso, fiquei com receio de não conseguir cobrir toda a CPU e GPU com a pressão do dissipador por conta da dificuldade em separar a pasta da seringa, então optei por usar a espátula que acompanha o produto pra espalhar bem. This does not appear to affect Arctic MX-4 which is still currently available and has not had the same issues MX-5 had. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. This leads to low thermal resistance, guaranteeing that heat is dissipated efficiently from the CPUs, GPUs or power semiconductor components.

Watercooling for the PC has been around for years in some form or another, for at least as long as Scan have been in business, with basic physics defining why you want to use it. Availability of MX Cleaner: Some packages of MX-6 come with MX Cleaner, which provides an easy and residue-free method for cleaning contact surfaces. Essa pasta não tem fama lá fora à toa, foi a primeira vez que utilizei e fiquei impressionado com os resultados.It does not contain any expensive or precious metal particles, and it reaches its maximum performance immediately after application. For enthusiasts and professionals seeking peak performance, the MX-6 emerges as a clear choice, offering enhanced thermal transfer, safety for delicate components, and innovative features such as the MX Cleaner for residue-free maintenance. High CPU load results were obtained using the Prime95 in-place large FFTs test with eight worker threads for a minimum of 15 minutes or until the temperature was deemed stable.
