Carbon Filler-Based | No Burn-In — Maximum performance immediately after application 20% Lower Thermal Resistance vs MX-4 — Better heat transfer, lower CPU and GPU temps Non-Conductive & Non-Capacitive — Safe around PCB traces, no short circuit risk Non-Drying, Non-Bleeding — Stable long-term performance, no pump-out effect No Liquid Metal — No corrosion or abrasion risk to heatsink surfaces Available in 2g, 4g & 8g — Single build to workshop use The ARCTIC MX-6 is a premium carbon-based thermal paste built to outperform the widely trusted MX-4 formula. Its improved composition delivers 20% lower thermal resistance straight out of the syringe — no break-in or heat cycling needed — making it one of the most immediately effective thermal compounds at its price point. The silicone gel carrier ensures consistent, even distribution under normal heatsink clamping pressure, filling microscopic surface irregularities without requiring specialized application techniques. The formula is fully non-electrically conductive and non-capacitive, making it safe for inexperienced and professional builders alike. It contains no liquid metal, so there is no risk of corrosion, discoloration, or abrasion damage to heatsink bases. Non-drying and non-bleeding properties keep performance stable over years of continuous use. The MX-6 is also suitable for direct-die cooling scenarios including GPU die repasting and console processor work. ARCTIC’s Authenticity Check system allows every tube to be verified as genuine product. Ideal For CPU Heatsink & AIO Cooling — Immediate high performance on all Intel and AMD processors without burn-in GPU Die Repasting — Non-conductive, non-corrosive formula safe for GPU and console APU work Overclockers & Enthusiasts — 20% better thermal resistance than MX-4 for lower sustained temperatures First-Time & Experienced Builders — Safe, easy-apply consistency with no short circuit risk Workshop & Multi-System Builds — 4g and 8g variants cover multiple CPUs per tube Variant Options 2g — MPN: ACTCP00079A 4g — MPN: ACTCP00080A 8g — MPN: ACTCP00081A Specifications Base Material — Carbon filler-based compound Carrier — Silicone gel Sizes Available — 2g, 4g, 8g Electrical Conductivity — Non-conductive, non-capacitive Liquid Metal — None Burn-In Required — No — maximum performance immediately after application Pump-Out Effect — Resistant — non-bleeding, non-drying Authenticity — ARCTIC Authenticity Check verified
