ARCTIC MX-4 is a basic, nonconductive thermal paste that works well for laptop repasting, lower end machines, and most everyday applications. It is easy to spread and clean up, and a thin application with isopropyl alcohol for cleanup is the usual approach. The low price makes it handy to keep a spare tube around for unexpected temperature spikes or aging paste. MX-7 is described as better in several areas, so MX-4 is the simpler, cheaper option when you just need solid paste on hand.
Common Questions (4)
Yes. It is described as a good paste for laptop repaste and for other small form factor systems where thermal throttling can hurt performance. It is also considered more than adequate for most people in most applications, especially lower-end machines.
Yes. Thermal paste can go bad with age, so replacing old stock is reasonable even at this price, and keeping a spare tube on hand can save time when temperatures start spiking unexpectedly.
Clean the old paste with isopropyl alcohol before applying the new paste. The paste should be spread as thinly as possible for proper coverage.
The 8g tube is repeatedly called the better value at about $5.99 to $6, with the same price per ounce and no need to wait for the 4g deal. The 4g offer is also noted as dead in one comment, while the 8g tube remains available.

The 8 gram deal without the spatula is just as good and since from Arctic as the seller, might be fresher lot

One other notable area where MX-7 performs better is in lower pump out. So, you'll have the thermal paste where you need it for longer.
