About this deal

This could well be due to many factors like mounting pressure, thermal paste application, varying ambient temperature.

I was chatting with a friend's dad a few years ago who was thoroughly convinced winter tires do not do anything. The new formula allows a thin layer of the paste on the surface due to less viscosity resulting in less thermal resistance. Please keep in mind that the thermal conductivity of the thermal paste is much lower than the thermal conductivity of metals likes aluminum or copper since aluminum has 205 W/mK and copper has 385 W/mK whereas the majority of the thermal pastes have up to 5 W/mK ratings with a few ranging up to 14 W/mK.

The video in the picture gallery demonstrates different application techniques to avoid air pockets between processors and coolers. Thermal Pads: In addition to thermal compounds, Arctic produces thermal pads that can be used in various electronic applications to transfer heat between components and heatsinks. If you wonder why the results were a few degrees different than the ones in my Noctua NH-D15S chromax. High CPU load results were obtained using the Prime95 in-place large FFTs test with eight worker threads for a minimum of 15 minutes or until the temperature was deemed stable.

Blender multicore test ran for 10 min at 70-75C, good result considering the 5000 series is considered to run hot. But it’s hard to guess what the viscosity of the MX-6 is, it probably won’t be 45,000 Poise as Arctic states in the specs. These cooling solutions help dissipate heat effectively, allowing for better performance and lower temperatures. With its new formula, the MX-5 allows a low minimum bondline thickness and thus features in combination with a high thermal conductivity a very low thermal resistance. As the technological demands on processors continue to increase, the importance of effective heat dissipation cannot be understated.While all this is great on paper, some batches of the Arctic MX-5 showed irregularities in durability, premature hardening, and overall consistency. They started in 2001 with the name ARCTIC Cooling and has evolved into a much more popular and reliable cooling solution provider now known as ARCTIC.

It has excellent non-drying and non-bleeding properties, which ensures consistent performance over time. I have tried in two different systems, one has a Ryzen 7 5800x (Known to be very hot) and the other was Ryzen 9 5900x. Meanwhile, there was no measurable difference between the ARCTIC MX-5 and the Noctua NT-H2, which is an excellent result.

The MX-4 thermal compound comes in a syringe-like package in a variety of sizes, from 2 grams to 45 grams. Edit: while I don't mind repasting, this is time and time again a reminder of how much of a pain in the ass it is to mount the Liquid Freezer II. I thought that was an interesting claim, mainly because most people on the no winter tire camp do not usually debate whether they work or not; they simply argue whether the performance difference is necessary in practice.

Our review unit of the ARCTIC MX-5 came in a medium-sized brown corrugated cardboard box from the company's American offices in Quinby, South Carolina, USA. There were no recorded differences between the ARCTIC and Noctua thermal pastes, because the truth is the processor in its idle state is not generating a whole lot of heat in the first place. Durability and Consistency: MX-5 faced issues with durability and consistency, leading to its discontinuation.You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Arctic Cooling, often referred to simply as Arctic, is a Swiss-based company that specializes in producing cooling solutions and thermal management products for computers and other electronic devices. I cut some stainless steel plates to replicate the CPU/cooler surfaces and attached them using the MX-5 paste. Tanto a placa de vídeo quanto a CPU não passaram de 72°C em nenhuma aplicação que utilizei (renderização, jogos, compilação), cerca de 5 a 10 graus mais baixo que a MasterGel regular que acompanhou o meu cooler da CPU.
