    ARCTIC MX-4 - Thermal Compound Paste, Carbon Based High Performance, Heatsink Paste, Thermal Compound CPU for All Coolers, Thermal Interface Material - 4 Grams

    • Even used it for great temps on a delidded 6700K. Will buy more when this runs out.
    • After installing MX-4 idle temps and full load temps remained the same.
    • Keeps the comp at a good temp
    • Good:-Low price (3-4 applications if you are careful)-Great quality, the temperatures between my cores are within a 1-2C difference on idle.-No "curing" or set-in required, the temps are the same as when I first applied the paste
    • Much better temps that Arctic Silver.
    • Added a second fan for push pull and keeps temps well controlled at 4.8ghz.
    • Decent dropped temps by 10•
    • Great low temps!
    • On a 4.3Ghz overclock my temps do not break 57C while stress testing with OCCT and real world gaming would be around 54C - 57C on the most intensive games
    • Great keeps my CPU temp low in my new system :)
    • I'm finding the temperatures on average are dropping 5-7c for my idling temps for both cpu and gpu which is amazing
    • i installed at the same time but the CPU temp is much cooler than before
    • I am still in the process of bench testing the new build, but so far temps are holding steady at 33C with air cooling.
    • I also decided to use this on my graphics cards because the temps were getting hotter than they used to be
    • I just recently used this to build a friend a new PC without any issue, and great temps to boot.
    • I have en enthusiast build and temps under
    • My idle temps using corsair link software and bios on arctic silver were 20 - 22 Celsius.
    • used it on ps4 great running temp reduction easy use with extra for more processors
    • Cheaper and temps about the same on Xeon X5670 CPUs.
    • easy to apply, great for the money, and good temps.
    • easy to apply, great for the money, and good temps.
    • Used on a overclocked 7700k, keeps temps cool
    • Works great, no break in, consistent low temps.
    • My CPU runs at a cool 22-25c temp so something is working
    • Strange though Arctic Silver seems to be more stable than the MX-4.With the Arctic Silver for the X5677 the temp on idle were around 36c and always stayed within a
    • keeping my temps down cooler then the other stuff I was usuing
    • i had idle temps of 63~c and load temps of 90+c
    • 955 BE used to scream bloody murder as it desperately tried to keep temps below the max safe temp of 62C. This last gaming session it capped out at 53C.That being said, this wasn't controlled testing and there were a lot of changed variables
    • My idle temps are in the low 20s and haven't even touched the 50's yet.
    • I have two gaming rigs that desperately needed their heat sinks cleaned up and thermal compound replaced (temps at 90% of maximum operating temperature or more under medium to heavy loads and fans running at full, and a few hard crashes due to high temperature triggers).
    • After burn in I checked the temps and they were in the low 70s
    • my temps dropped 5c under a load (capping out at 60 as opposed to 64-65).
    • The previous, in combination with Arctic MX4 between the heat spreader and the CPU heatsink gave me those amazing temps
    • Although, depending on what temps you consider adequate, this might be okay for a moderately overclocked Intel i7 8700k with a good cooling system, but from my experience, I wouldn't advise this paste for such a purpose
    • good temps
    • Running an i5 4690k at 4.5GHz and Max temps went from 86C to 74C while idle temps went from 34~36 to 26~30
    • My CPU temps are right where they should be.
    • It Lowered my Top end temps 3-4 degrees over stock cooler paste from master cooler.
    • Nice temps at both idle and heavy load.
    • Excellent thermal paste, I will recommend this to anyone specially if you are first time builder as the thermal paste spreads easily, keeps you cpu at good temps and above else is non-conductive
    • This stuff will drop temps like mad
    • Works great temps are down by 20%
    • It keeps my temps low and my PC strong
    • Consistent temps in low 40 degree C. Would recommend for any build or just to recover that old CPU...
    • Turned the machine back on, and temps are better than I've seen them in a long, long time.
    • Works great, temps decreased by 5-8c
    • With the original blue "gunk" from Dell on my 5 years old laptop, core temp = upper 70s C.Without any thermal paste (this is after a thorough CPU and heat sink cleaning), core temp
    • The middle temps 50-70's went down 1-2C as well.
    • Awesome temps on my 2500k fast shipping
    • With a H115i, idle temps in Win10 are mid 30's, and in game, mid 60's
    • This product got my idle temps down 2c and load temps down 10-12c
    • Really good temps with this stuff!
    • I use NZXT CAM for temperature monitoring, and much to my surprise, my temps went up to 60C idle
    • as good as it gets...keeps temps down
    • CPU temps now do not exceed 49 degrees Celsius
    • Idle temps 30C and max temps are 58C, Ryzen 1600 3.75 ghz corsair hydro
    • My i5-2500k temps at 4.3Ghz were hitting 70°C on load, so I decided to replace the Arctic Silver TIM with this, and my load temps are now at 50-55°C max, with idle temps sitting at ~30-35°C.
    • This (along with a new fan) has been keeping my CPU temps well in check, and should last a long time.
    • I get idle temps of 21C with a
    • With this cooler i now have idle temps of 29~c and load temps in the low 63~c
    • I recently tried this on my CPU and GPU in one of my laptops, a MSI GE60 Apache Pro, that has always had really terrible temps (throttling @ around
    • I have an overclocked i5-760 @ 3.7GHz under a Megahalems Rev B cooler with push/pull Scythe Slip Stream 120mm fans and my temps are 28C idle and 50C max after hours
    • Lowered my idle temp about 14 degrees from stock cooler master paste.
    • so far so good, the computer has been up and going for a while now, maybe a month, and CPU temps are totally stable.
    • Good paste it takes a few days for the paste to set to get the best temps I got anywhere form 5 to 10
    • Idle CPU temp dropped by 40 degrees, but that was probably mostly a dried out/improperly applied paste
    • After cleaning the dust and appling this my laptop's cpu temp went down from 100 Celsius to 50 Celsius
    • I spent $30 on a tube of Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut and didn't get any better temps than I get with the mx4.
    • temps on amd 955be are 31c idle and 41c load
    • and it works perfectly with really good temps.
    • The idle temp is 23C, actually 3 degrees C lower than the chipset temp at 26C.
    • Now that I'm using MX-4, I've seen my idle CPU temp drop as low as 25, and max load barely reaches mid 50s
    • Dropped my idle temps from 55c to 45c.
    • Does the job very well dropped temps 3c..
    • Works fine, lowered temps by 2-3C.
    • Works great, dropped temps tremendously
    • I was recommended this by a friend and after I put this on it it dropped my idle temps from 40c-42c to 36c-38c.
    • After removing the old thermal paste and putting in Arctic MX-4, my laptop's temps were much cooler
    • Amazing thermal paste, temps went from 60C to around 20C idle
    • A well known brand and keeps my CPU temps nice and cool.
    • I expect the temps will get slightly better over time as the paste cures, that whole burn in period that most paste needs
    • Awesome temps using this as part of my balanced cooling breakfast
    • Idle temps are down 10 degrees, and full load are down at least 10 degrees as well
    • CPU temps are down considerably, and it no longer throttles.
    • The idle temps were kind of strange but maybe that is just how the thermal paste is designed.
    • Works well, and holds consistent low temps.
    • I decided to try this instead of the usual Arctic Silver 5 and I've already noticed better temps
    • Both the Arctic and the Antec had similar temps for me on my CPU but they didn't work quite right for my GPU
    • The idle temp is a little lower, typically in the 35-38°C range.
    • Idle temps are mid to high 20's, load temps are mid 70's to 80ishIve only ever used arctic silver and cooler master thermal paste before
    • pretty cool temps
    • Took a day for it to set, then the idle temp Minimum went down to 4C and common
