ARCTIC MX-6

Range/Series Overview

Features Summary

• Better performance
  With its improved composition, the ARCTIC MX-6 has a measurably lower thermal resistance than the MX-4. The basis for calculation is the temperature difference between the cooler base and the heat source (in C) in relation to the applied heat load (in W), which also results in the unit C/W. The higher the thermal resistance, the worse the heat can be transferred through the TIM layer. The higher the thermal resistance, the worse the heat can be transferred through the TIM layer. Thermal insulators, as an example, therefore always have a particularly high thermal resistance, while thermal interface materials usually have a particularly low one.
• Optimal consistency for every application
  Depending on personal preference and area of application, a thinner or thicker thermal compound may be preferred. Excellent non-drying and non-bleeding properties ensure constant long-term performance. With ARCTIC thermal pastes you will find the optimal viscosity for your application.
• Proven quality
  The MX-6 was developed with the goal to offer a first-class product at a fair price. The optimized formula is based on the proven MX-4. The focus was on versatile application possibilities and an easy-to-use consistency.
• 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.
• Risk-free 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.
• Versatile range of applications
  With its 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.
