From the brand
ARCTIC, a leading manufacturer of PC coolers and components, initiated and continues to shape the trend towards quiet cooling systems.
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 PerformanceWith 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 qualityWe 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 applicationsWith 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 CheckTo 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 applicationMX-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 versionsARCTIC 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. |

I know its only designed for a single CPU usage but I have used it for a Macbook Air and twice for a Ryzen 9 CPU
just a note, the cleaning pads really stink (of the cleaning solution)
The whispers on the bustling marketplace have reached a fever pitch, all concerning a newcomer: Arctic MX-6, a contender in the realm of thermal paste. Intrigued by such chatter, I, Lady Whistledown, ventured to investigate this curious concoction.
Upon arrival, the MX-6 presented itself with a most unassuming demeanor. Packaged simply, it promised "ultimate performance" – a bold claim indeed. But could this upstart truly rival the established players in the thermal arena?
The application, I daresay, was a delightful affair. Unlike its more cumbersome counterparts, the MX-6 boasted a consistency akin to the finest finishing cream. A mere dollop, spread with the grace of a delicate fan, ensured optimal coverage.
And then, the moment of truth. My test subject, a CPU previously prone to feverish outbursts, was outfitted with the MX-6. The results, dear reader, were nothing short of astonishing. Temperatures plummeted with a grace that would leave even the Dowager Duchess speechless. The once-troubled CPU now operated with the cool composure of a seasoned gentleman at White's.
In Conclusion:
The Arctic MX-6, while lacking the aristocratic pedigree of some, has proven itself a worthy companion in the pursuit of thermal tranquility. Its ease of use, coupled with its undeniable effectiveness, makes it a delightful option for both seasoned tech enthusiasts and curious novices alike.
Verdict: A Most Agreeable Acquaintance
Your Obedient Servant,
Lady Whistledown
It's good that they bundle six because I had to use three to clean my laptop GPU and CPU off. It took a bit of buffing to get off the old stuff. I polished a little with some dry tissue after because there seemed to be some chemical residue.
Can't really comment on the thermal performance of the paste. It's nice and thick and the syringe works well.
The included thermal paste wipes work incredibly well, and smell very nice and strong, my room smelled like the tissues for three days. Paste 👍.
Easy to apply and effective, it ensures maximum heat transfer between the CPU and heatsink. After using it, I noticed a significant drop in CPU temperatures under load.
The paste fills gaps and improves thermal conductivity, offering durability and stable performance over time.
Whether you're building or upgrading a PC, this thermal paste is essential for optimal cooling and CPU protection. Highly recommended for enthusiasts and professionals!
Top reviews from other countries
The cleaning wipes are amazing, they simply destroy the old thermal paste, even if it is hard and stuck to the CPU/Cooler.
The complaints about the smell are a bit exaggerated if you compare it to how well the product works, in my case the smell only lasted about a day, it is indeed relatively strong but it just smells like cleaning products. I recommend that you dispose of the wipes in a bag that you then close to properly dispose of them and the smell, that little wipe WILL keep the smell for quite some time (people are probably throwing the used wipes in a nearby bin and that's why they can't get rid of the smell)
Mas os limpadores MX Cleaner são INCRÍVEIS, muito fácil e rápido limpar o processador.
4g est largement suffisant pour CPU et GPU de pc portable: il me reste presque 3/4 de la seringue.
Les lingettes nettoyantes fournies avec marchent bien, pas eu besoin de nettoyant supplémentaire.
La MX6 a la bonne viscosité: assez pour bien tenir en place, et suffisament basse pour bien s'étaler sous la pression du radiateur.
Côté performances, un gain énorme pour mon PC qui avait gardé sa pâte d'origine pendant 5 ans: -20°C sur le CPU en utilisation normale, et le retour au silence hors jeux. Une partie de ce gain est peut être due aussi au nettoyage des radiateurs et ventilateurs que j'ai fait en même temps.
