About this item:
- Excellent Performance: ARCTIC MX-4 thermal paste is made of carbon microparticles, guaranteeing extremely high thermal conductivity. This ensures that heat from the CPU/GPU is dissipated quickly & efficiently
- Safe Application: The MX-4 is metal-free and non-electrical conductive which eliminates any risks of causing short circuit, adding more protection to the CPU and VGA cards
- High Durability: In contrast to metal and silicon thermal compound, the MX-4 does not compromise over time. Once applied, you do not need to apply it again as it will last at least for 8 years

ARCTIC MX-4 is a budget thermal paste that stands out for easy application and strong cooling performance. The paste is described as very effective, with consistently good thermal results and enough flexibility to work well on a CPU or other components. The included spatula is handy, though the paste can also be applied with a simple spread or even a blob and mount approach. Shelf life after opening is a consideration, and larger tubes make more sense only if you are covering multiple parts. A solid low-cost option for routine repastes.
Common Questions (5)
Yes. It spreads easily, and application technique is not critical; spreading it carefully or using a blob-and-mount method can produce similar results. A small dab rubbed into the heat spreader before mounting can also help fill micro-fissures.
It has a shelf-life once opened and can dry out over time, though it does not separate like some silicone pastes. For long-term use, some setups may need repasting periodically, especially after years of service.
MX-7 is reported to have better performance in several areas while staying non-conductive, and it costs only a little more. MX-4 remains a cheap, effective option, but MX-7 is the stronger pick if you want the better paste.
Only if you plan to use it on more than one component. For a single heatsink, the extra paste is unnecessary, while the 4g tube is already enough for one build.
Yes, it can be used for a repaste on a 5+ year old Series S, and that can help extend the console's usable life. A fresh repaste may buy several more years of not worrying about thermal issues.
