cmegolo@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 10/21/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:None Pros:Very easy to apply. No cure/burn in time. A must to replace the OE pre-applied TIM's. Comment: I've used this product before and I love it.
Mathieu_L@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 10/19/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:Did not buy from NCIX :( Pros:NON-CONDUCTIVE! No Cure Time Required. Easy to apply. Comment: Excellent product. NON-CONDUCTIVE! No Cure Time Required. Easy to apply. Better than stock TIM that came with my Corsair A70 by 2-3*C. I paired this up with Arctic Clean TIM remover and surface purifier and couldn't be happier. Highly recommended for new users and experienced users alike. Don't have to worry if you get some on other MB components as it is NON-CONDUCTIVE!Would definitely purchase again if needed.
JayDee@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 10/16/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:none Pros:Was cheap on sale. Acceptable cooling Comment: I am a long time user of Ceramique and thought I'd try this out when it was on sale as it has had many good reviews. I can't complain about it's cooling performance but I'm not really impressed either. I'll stick with my Ceramique.
Mupod@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 10/14/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:N/A Pros:Easy to useDoes what it's supposed to do Comment: I've never used thermal paste before, but I had no trouble applying this to my 2500k and hyper 212+. I seem to get great temperatures but I have nothing to compare it to.
Christopher_J@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 09/09/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:n/a Pros:Effective, non-conductive. Comment: Solid performing thermal paste for a fair price.
mark_h@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 08/31/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:hate the package it came in clam shell plastic... Pros:non conductive, cheap when on sale picked it up for 7$ Comment: I got this stuff on sale for 7$ way better than the thermal compound that ships with cpu and cpu coolers. easy to install and doesnt seem like it will dry up too soon. great! would buy again.
Michael_P@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 08/30/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:nil Pros:nice temps, less thick than arctic silver Comment: easy to apply, performance is comparable to arctic silver 5 but less fussy.
Richard_C@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 05/21/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:messy if you get it on clothes Pros:works as advertised Comment: This thermal paste is fantastic. I've been using arctic silver for years and never looked back. It offers a great way to get additional cooling for your processors and even GPUs without doing much work. This allows you to overclock even better, but more importantly for me, it lowers the idle temperature as well, which results in offices and bedrooms not heating up quite as much, as well as slightly quieter computers from the fans not having to spin as fast.Plus each tube can last for multiple CPU installs. I think it's around 10 right now. So that brings the price per application right down...bonus!
CHRISTINA_L@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 05/09/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:Will probably use it just once or twice before it goes bad. Pros:It works as expectedIt's cheap Comment: Trying this for the first time and it works just like the similar products from other companies. It's 4 grams but you really don't even need 1.
wlachan@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 05/05/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:Worse than generic paste Pros:Nice packaging (not really a pro but I have to type something here) Comment: I have been building PCs for 2 decades and bought a tube just to satisfy my curiosity as there are so many favorable reviews out there. I have been working with my pretty hot AMD ZM-84 Acer for days trying to lower the loaded core temp which peaked at 86C with Linpack. With TX-2 & AS-5 it always hits 86C at 10mins. With MX-2, it took only 5mins. Now the most surprising part, I tried the white generic paste (Evercool EC350-TU15) that came with some cheap heatsinks I bought years ago and it max out at 82C. The results speak for themselves.2 * only (but the system won't let me cos it was a walk-in sale and I don't have OrderID). This review was modfied by poster @ 05-05-11 10:18 PM
Ryan_B@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 04/21/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:had a bit of difficulty spreading it with a credit card.. Pros:not much to say..it works - but i didnt notice anything spectacular Comment: good temps, sure beats the stock crap they put on intel fans
Raymond_C@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 04/20/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:None. Pros:Good quality from a good brand. Very cheap on sale. Good performance. Comment: Excellent product at a fantastic price when it's on sale. Keeps my i7 cool.
Matt_D@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 04/15/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:Maybe something to spread it with would be nice Pros:Does it's job and does it well. Comment: I'm not all that experienced with these pastes but I've used this one along side a few others and so far this one has kept my cpu's the coolest of them all. Hopefully they can stay in storage for a while okay ^^
teknix@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 04/08/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:- none Pros:- excellent performance- applies easily- wont short out your components Comment: more praise for this excellent thermal paste. applies easily and being non electrical conductive means your expensive components won't short out if you get some on them. unless you can get mx-4 cheaper, for the price it can't be beat.
Andrew_Y@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 03/30/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:-None Pros:-Nice big tube-easy to apply-Decent temps Comment: The 300 reviews speak for themselves.. Not really much of a reason to go for anything else unless you like experimenting or spending more money. Great paste.
mrxjxj@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 02/07/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:Price to effectiveness ratio is excellent Pros:Easy to applyLasts an extended duration of timeExcellent thermal conductivity Comment: I needed to get some thermal compound to use with a third party heatsink so I purchased a tube of Arctic Cooling MX-2 thermal compound. It performs great! This is good stuff!
Howard_Y@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 01/17/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:None Pros:It does bring down the temps Comment: I used the pea-drop method, and so I have lots left. Using this method and paste, I was able to bring down my Phenom II x3 710 (which is OC'd to 3.25GHz with unlocked cores) 3C. Non-conductive, always good.
Michael_B@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 01/14/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:took long time to get in stock Pros:great thermal pasteSmiley method works the best Comment: Bought this when it was on sale at 3.99 but it took nearly a month for them to get it back in stock which sorta sucked having to wait that long but I was in no rush, This is a great product and I find you get a great spread when you make a small smiley face on the cpu before applying it, some say to use the pea method but I find you just don't get enough thermal paste that way. I used to just lather the cpu up a bit before placing the HSF but then I seen that air bubbles get trapped in there and no longer do that (I did in my first 2 builds and was shocked) so I expect to get better temps with my AMD HTPC build with this :D
BlackMPC@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 01/13/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:Doesn't include anything to spread with. Pros:Noticed a temperature drop from stock paste. Comment: This paste worked well if my Silenx Effizio and OCZ Gladiator heatsinks. I tried this paste with my stock cooler and noticed a difference so I used it on my aftermarket coolers too.
Ashley_R@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 01/07/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:none so far Pros:Great thermal pastelots in tube Comment: Got this on sale for $3.99 ... great thermal paste.Worth the purchase - especially for overclocking.
Tony_G@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 01/05/11	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:None Pros:PriceNon conductiveEasy to apply Comment: Maybe not the greatest one around, but it is easy to apply, and does a very nice job. The difference between this and anything considered much better is VERY small in terms of temps achieved.I hate the conductive ones.. I've used this one, MX-2, and the Artic Alumina and Ceramique. They all have decent performance.And at the < $4 it cost me when it was on sale, it is best bang for the buck. To get anything "slighly" better, you are looking at at least 4 times the price, and probably a pain to apply.Would definately buy again.
Linda_T@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/28/10	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:None Pros:Clean.Easy to manage.Does the job. Comment: Overall, this is excellent thermal paste, NON CONDUCTIVE, and is very clean and easy to add to any C.P.U. and heat sink. It has done the job for my rig, and I re apply it once a year just to renew the paste as maintenance. All in all, perfect.
Adrian_P@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/28/10	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:None Pros:Easy to apply, very good price, tried tested and true Comment: I see no real difference between mx-2, mx-3 or mx-4 so I just go with the old faithful mx-2 every time. Use for laptop and desktop processors and GPU's. Can pickup during weekly sales for a very good price. Have been using MX-2 for 3 years now and will continue to support the product in the future.
MaxFast@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/21/10	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:none. Pros:-non conductive-decent sized tube-$4 on sale-high performance stuff-non curing-outperforms the old arctic silver Comment: I've been using this stuff for a while and I couldn't resist when I saw it on sale at NCIX for $4. I've used my first tube at least 4 or 5 times and I still have about 50% left.Apparently, it is better than AS3 that everyone has been using for years. And to boot, it has no cure time and is non-conductive.I've thought about using MX-3 or MX-4 but it's more expensive and supposedly doesn't provide much of a temperature decrease. Plus, the MX-2 flows the easiest. Not to thin, not too thick.
9000cc@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 11/29/10	Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound Paste NON-ELECTRICAL Conductive 4 Gram Cons:None Pros:Inexpensive, easy to work with, long life expectancy Comment: Despite MX-3, MX-4 and other more expensive options being available I still find I use this stuff quite often. Especially when a tube is so cheap PMed.I have used this on everything from highly OCed Core iSeries and e5200s to ancient undervolted Celeron Ms. I've used it on an old iMac G4 (desk lamp) and on several Macbook HSFs (really helps these cuts down fan noise) and just about every north/southbridge I've touched..In every case the temps have come down. For this price a little peace of mind knowing that I've removed the gobs of cheap OEM compound is well worth it.
