Review: Great thermal paste. A pain to apply. - Coming from the old Arctic Silver products, this stuff is a pain to spread, so I quite trying and just add the usual "X" shaped application and it's worked great when compressed. Temps are always competitively low.
Review: Works great - I think some people might be overstating the smell issue a bit. Yeah, the cleaning wipes have a definite odor. I don't even think it's that bad of a smell honestly. I threw the wipes away when I was done with them and I couldn't even smell them in the trash the next day. Not a big deal. Anyway, I've bought a couple of (somewhat) inexpensive mini pc's from Topton because I'm ridiculous and I like to tinker. Since I had to open them up anyway (I had bought RAM and SSD's separately rather than buy it bundled), the first thing I did was clean the paste off of the cooler and cpu, and reapply using this Arctic MX6. The cleaning wipes were excellent, one wipe per CPU was enough to completely remove any paste on the cpus and the coolers. Reapplying was equally simple, after the surface had dried from the wipes, put a bead on the CPU and slowly replace the cooler on top. The one with the Ryzen 7 5825U has a couple of fans, and used to idle in the low 40's C, but now seems to hover around 36C at idle. Maxing it out at 100% usage, it took several minutes to heat up to 80C, at which point the power management kicked in and slowed it down to 2.6GHz until it cooled to about 65C. The Ryzen 7 7730U seemed to perform even better, especially considering that's a fanless system that just uses a chunk of copper and a finned aluminum exterior to dissipate heat.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this last as long has MX-4? How often wil it need to be reapplied?**
A: How Often Should You Replace Thermal Paste? In most cases, you shouldn't need to reapply more than once every few years (every two to three years), though you should replace your paste if you remove your cooler for any reason. You may also want to consider reapplying thermal paste if you find your CPU temperatures are climbing.
"Per Intel's website"

**Q: does this come with a spatula?**
A: Nope

**Q: Hey manufacturers, what is the thermal conductivity, why won't you post it?**

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Keeps cpu cool
*by D***S on March 5, 2026*

Replaced my cpu and bought this thermal paste for my new cpu. Works great and easy application. Before putting away my old one, the wipes cleaned up the old thermal paste great. Have not had any heating issues with my cpu and temps are running normal. Good thermal paste.
