ARCTIC MX-4 (8 g) - Premium Performance Thermal Paste for all processors (CPU, GPU - PC, PS4, XBOX), very high thermal conductivity, long durability, safe application, non-conductive, non-capacitive

Brilliant product, my ps4 pro is super quiet now! 100% recommended. So in terms of performance is just day and night,very good.

PROS: The amount of devices this can be used for can be endless, It's quite easy to apply but when you mess up it leaves quite a big mess so try not to. The paste quality it's self is good it keeps my cpu temps down to the 40-70 degree range, if the cpu maxs out for a long period of time it would be roughly 70 degrees. The size could last you a couple of years depending on how offten you use it, it comes with a decent amount of thermal paste CONS: Can be hard to clean up if you applied too much, you need to know the balance between how much it too much and how much is just enough. OVERALL: I would recommend this thermal paste because it's from a reputable brand that i trust and so do others. 5/5.

Excellent paste, easy to apply and the 8g size goes a long way. Used to repaste during multiple refits / replacements when repairing a faulty laptop fan that required the entire CPU/GPU heat pipe cooling module to removed each time a new fan was tried. You don't need much! everal re-fittings used no more than half in total.

I have absolutely no idea if using different named thermal paste impacts performance. I do know that it's easily installed. Carefully! Paste quality was perfect consistency for applying to the CPU! Performance is perfect! Temps looking good!

After purchasing a Raspberry PI 4 4Gb, heatsink and accompanying fan, I realised I had run out of my trusty Noctua NT-H1 thermal paste. I initial looked up the NT-H1 and found it was just shy of £14 for 10g (03 JAN 2020) which I felt to be overpriced. Amazon recommend alternatives as it usually does with any search, leading me to stumble on to this product, Artic MX-4. Having not used this product before I did a bit of internet research comparing it to MX-2 (cheaper but apparently harder to clean and spread on a CPU) and NT-H1 respectively. Thus, the MX-2 was ruled out, since I do not have the steadiest of hands when performing DIY or during thermal paste application. Hence, if I needed to remove the paste, I wanted something which was quick and easy to do. The MX-4 was already leading as it was £7.99 for 8g in comparison to the NT-H1, so scoring well in the cost area. As for actual performance there is little in it, both achieve good results in online tests, which I believe are also subjective. As there are so many variables involved in carrying out accurate testing (such as room temperature and how hard the CPU is stressed). None the less I ordered the MX-4, using it on both my Raspberry PI 4 and I7 CPU. I decided to re-paste the I7 whilst I was at it and I have not seen any noticeable temperature differences. So, I consider this the best bang for buck premium thermal paste happily to substitute it for Noctua’s offering.

Quality. Dropped temps by 7c

Keeps CPU temp to less than 70°C on startup and using CPU-Z stress testing. Cinebench 2014 CPU temp is around 70°C My CPU is AMD Ryzen 7900 Previously I had to keep replacing the paste as the CPU temp went over 90°C and often over 100°C

Purchased this online after previously buying from my local PC shop. I've used Arctic as my go too thermal paste for years now and it works well both on CPU's and GPU's (If you want to risk taking them apart to apply it like I did). Product keeps constant temperatures but after 3-4 months of regular high usage it does need reapplying, Each 8g gives you 4-5 uses pending how heavy handed you are on the application.

PACKAGING: Il pacco è arrivato intatto e nel giorno previsto. La pasta termica presenta un packaging semplice composto unicamente da una scatolina di carta con sopra informazioni superflue, il tubetto di pasta termica in plastica con il relativo tappino ed una apprezzatissima spatolina per stendere uniformemente il prodotto sulla CPU. CARATTERISTICHE: Spiego subito perché ho deciso di dare 5 stelle: la pasta termica ha delle prestazioni eccellenti (le temperature che riuscirà a garantire sono coerenti con i test trovabili sul web) e soprattuto non necessità di essere cambiata spesso, io personalmente consiglio una volta ogni 18 mesi circa. L’applicazione è semplice grazie alla fluidità della pasta termica (che si mantiene molto bene nel tempo grazie al tubetto di ottima qualità) ed alla piccola spatola in plastica. Personalmente consiglio di stendere la pasta in uno dei due modi seguenti a seconda del vostro tipo di CPU: 1. Se avete una CPU quadrata: ponete una piccola quantità di pasta termica sulla CPU (circa un chicco di riso) e lasciate che si stenda autonomamente all’appoggio del dissipatore. 2. Se avete una CPU rettangolare: ponete una striscia di pasta termica (circa del diametro di un chicco di riso) nel centro della CPU in modo che abbia la stessa direzione del lato più lungo di quest’ultima e scegliete voi come stendere la pasta termica a seconda di come ritenete meglio. PRO✅: ◾contenuto del packaging ◾conservabilità ◾prestazioni ◾durabilità CONTRO❌: ◾essendo 5 stelle, non ci sono contro! :) CONCLUSIONI: In conclusione posso affermare che per qualsiasi utilizzo che voi facciate/farete della vostra CPU, ritengo questa pasta termica una delle migliori scelte sul mercato se non la migliore! P.S. Se la recensione vi è stata utile, lasciate un feedback ;)

ARCTIC MX-4 is a popular, general-purpose thermal paste known for its strong performance, long-lasting durability, and safe, non-conductive application. Good for a plethora of applications including GPUs, CPUs, GAMING CONSOLES etc. PROS: • Safe to use • Easy application • High durability up to 8 years • Versatile

Muito boa, chegou rápido

Good, reliable thermal paste that lasts long. Nothing fancy, but definitely better than stock paste. If you can spend a bit more, go for the MX-6. Applied to my 2yr old Vivobook, 5-10 degree drop on average temp.

Replaced my PS4 thermal paste. The thing is running like a baby now. No super loud fans anymore!
