The Arctic MX-4 is a thermal paste that offers exceptional heat transfer from components to coolers. Like its well-known predecessors in the Arctic MX series, the Arctic MX-4 is specifically designed for overclockers. The MX-4 is very easy to apply. Its new consistency makes it a breeze to apply cleanly on the chip, even with a finger. The electrically non-conductive paste is placed between the CPU/GPU and the corresponding coolers to optimize heat transfer from the chip to the cooler. Since the Arctic MX-4 is metal-free, it eliminates the risk of short circuits, thereby providing increased safety for the computer.
