No Issues, Excellent Performance!
The Arctic MX-6 thermal paste is fantastic! I’ve used it for a few builds now, and I haven’t had any issues at all. It applies smoothly and provides great thermal conductivity, keeping my CPU temps low and stable. The included cleaner is a nice touch, making it easy to remove old paste before applying the new one. The performance is consistent, and I’ve noticed no overheating or thermal throttling. Definitely a reliable choice for anyone looking for a high-quality thermal paste. Highly recommended!

Easy to use, and performs well!
I went to a computer repair shop a week ago to have the thermal paste replaced, however, perhaps due to the poor skills of the repairers or the quality of the product they used, this caused my R7-5800H to reach 80 degrees even in standby mode. The fan had to run all the time to cool down the CPU. I had to buy this product and try replacing the thermal paste myself, which worked surprisingly well. Now my laptop is quiet again. It stays at 50 degrees in standby and below 70 degrees when I am running a high load game. Considering the huge amount of heat generated by the R7-5800H, this product has performed well enough. It is very easy to use and the viscosity is appropriate and will not cause you any problems.The MX Cleaner purchased along with it cleans well, but the smell is very unpleasant, much like petrol mixed with chemicals. I think these drawbacks are negligible though as it is far cheaper than some well known products and perhaps performs even better.

Highly recommend!
The ARCTIC MX-6 Thermal Paste is excellent for anyone looking to improve cooling performance! It’s easy to apply, and the included MX Cleaner makes the process even smoother. The paste offers very high thermal conductivity, keeping my CPU and graphics card temperatures much lower than before. I’ve noticed a significant difference in performance, especially during heavy usage. It’s non-conductive and non-capacitive, so I feel confident using it on my sensitive components. The 4g size is perfect for multiple applications, making it great value for the price. Highly recommend for any PC or console builder!

Review of Thermal Paste with Cleaning Wipes
Review of Thermal Paste with Cleaning WipesI’ve used this thermal paste for some time now, and overall, it performs exceptionally well. However, there are a couple of things worth mentioning—one being a personal gripe and the other something that could have been improved.PerformanceFirst and foremost, the thermal paste does its job. After application, I noticed consistently low temperatures, which is exactly what you want from a product like this. Compared to other thermal pastes I’ve tried, this one stands out for its effectiveness, keeping my components cool and stable under load.The Smell of the Alcohol WipesHere’s where my personal gripe comes in: the smell from the alcohol wipes included with the paste is very strong. I’m not sure if the potency is necessary to clean off old thermal paste effectively, but it’s something to be aware of. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of not immediately disposing of the used wipes after use. The lingering smell in my room was overwhelming and awful—definitely a lesson learned!PricingWhile the paste works great, I feel the price is slightly on the higher side. For the performance it offers, it’s reasonable, but a bit of a price drop would make it more accessible to a wider audience.ProsExcellent Cooling: Keeps temperatures impressively low, even under heavy usage.Included Wipes: Convenient for cleaning off old paste, although they come with their own drawback (see below).ConsStrong Smell: The alcohol wipes have an overpowering odor, and failing to dispose of them immediately can make the smell linger in your space.Price: Slightly expensive compared to some other options on the market.Final ThoughtsThis thermal paste delivers great results, and I’m very happy with its cooling performance. However, the strong smell from the wipes and the slightly high price keep it from being perfect in my eyes. That said, if cooling performance is your top priority, this is a solid choice that won’t disappoint.4/5 Stars: Excellent thermal performance, but the wipes’ smell and pricing could be improved.

Great thermal paste kit.
I bought this as I would normally have used the mx-4 paste which is normally picked up for pretty cheap and is a great piece of paste.I bought this as it's the newest version which claims to be better at passing heat to the heatsink. I can safely say that this is much better than the already great mx-4. So far I've used it on a couple of gaming PCs and servers.I wasn't expecting this to have too much of an impact on reducing cpu temps, however after applying this, I can say I'm seeing temps drop as much as 20 degrees. I must admit the 20 degree drop was from a used gaming pc that had horrendous paste applied previously which most likely wasn't changed at all.On my servers I'm seeing a good 7-10 degree drop in CPU temp. This is fantastic.The kit comes in a little box with the syringe of paste as well as a little pack of cleaning wipes. These made quick work of cleaning CPUs completely, I would normally use separate thermal paste cleaners and primers, however this kit was so handy, the wipes clean off paste as quick as a hot knife through butter. They smell like lemon and if you've used any similar cleaner then you'll know the smell. I think it's great.All in all. Very happy with the product, will certainly be my go to as thermal paste from now on. From this pack I've changed 4 CPUs and there is obviously still lots left.The paste itself isn't watery, it's not too thick either and spreads fantastic. There isn't a spatula to spread the paste, I personally don't use them but I know some would prefer this method. I just go for the blob in the middle and let the heatsinks spread it evenly.
