ARCTIC COOLING

ARCTIC COOLING ACTCP00080A MX-6 4g thermal paste

SKU CH-ZMW7-FRGF2 MPN ACTCP00080A

High-performance thermal compound with 20% better thermal resistance than MX-4, non-conductive formula safe for CPUs, GPUs and consoles

Weight 4g

  • 20 % better thermal resistance than MX-4
  • Non-conductive formula prevents short-circuit risk
  • Viscosity suited for direct-die GPU and console use
  • Authenticity check verifies every individual syringe
  • Over 20 years of cooling-market experience behind the product

What the MX-6 4g does and who needs it

The ARCTIC MX-6 4g is a thermal compound designed for CPU, graphics card and console processors. It targets builders and technicians who want a non-conductive paste with lower thermal resistance than the older MX-4. The 4 g syringe covers several applications without excess waste.

When the MX-6 is a worthwhile upgrade

The manufacturer states a measurable 20% improvement in thermal resistance compared with the MX-4, so the jump makes sense when replacing dried-out paste or moving from a basic compound. It is not suited for users who need a larger volume for repeated re-pasting or industrial-scale assembly.

Build fit: what it needs and what it frees

MX-6 is neither electrically conductive nor capacitive, removing the risk of short circuits on exposed die or surrounding components. Its viscosity allows direct-die use on GPUs and console processors as well as standard heat-spreader mounting. The Authenticity Check lets each syringe be verified as genuine.

Questions about this item

What size syringe does the MX-6 4g thermal paste come in?

The ACTCP00080A model is supplied as a 4 g syringe for CPU, GPU and console applications.

How do I apply MX-6 without creating air pockets on a direct-die GPU?

Place a small central dot, then mount the cooler straight down; the paste viscosity spreads evenly under pressure without manual spreading.

When should I replace the MX-6 paste on my graphics card?

Arctic rates the compound for long durability; typical service intervals are several years unless temperatures rise noticeably.
