Easy ApplicationThanks to its consistency, MX-4 is easy to apply. The video below demonstrates different application techniques to avoid air pockets between processors and coolers. |
Extraordinary performanceARCTIC MX-4 consists of carbon micro-particles that promote extremely high thermal conductivity. As a result, this ensures fast and efficient heat dissipation from the CPU or GPU. ARCTIC MX-4 is one of the top thermal conductive pastes on the market. |
Safe applicationARCTIC MX-4 is a metal-free and non-electrically conductive paste. Therefore minimizing the risk of short circuits. |
Proven qualityWhile the packaging of our thermal paste has changed several times over the years, the composition of the formula has remained the same. MX pastes have long stood for high performance and quality. |
Because one cannot only rely on the thermal conductivity value of the paste, ARCTIC MX-4 was tested against a broad field of competitors under laboratory conditions. The chart above shows the temperature difference between CPU and cooler base for various competitors. Compared to metal and silicon-based thermal compounds, the MX-4 does not compromise over time.

IT DOESN”T COOL A COMPONENT THAT HEATS BEYOND 70CI used it for my “Nitro 5 AN515-53” Gaming Laptop & it was able to cool the GPU but with the CPU, it DIDIN”T work at all. Max temperatures for CPU were 99C & idling at 71C & that made me think that I did something wrong. I opened the Gaming Laptop 5 times & reapplied it 5 different ways. Non worked for CPU but it did work for the GPU (it’s because the GPU does NOT heat as much as the CPU). That being said, I made the conclusion that the thermal paste was not good enough so I went on to purchase “Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut” & it fixed the overheating issue of the CPU & GPU.Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut:CPU MAX Temperature: 79CGPU MAX Temperature: 49CI recommended Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut to all of my friends on Steam. It actually surpassed my expectations.

No name –
Really didn’t seem to make a differenceGot this my my XPS 15 9560, 3 years old. It’s been overheating and very slow now days. I can’t seem to run any games without a fan on. I used to be able to run big games like NBA 2K on it with no problems and League would be smooth. Now days, I have all the power settings set to highest performance with fans on which seems to be a bit better, but the laptop will continue to overheat and lag from just watching videos and having multiple tabs open on google chrome. So unfortunately, this product didn’t really seem to help as much as I intended it to.
