ARCTIC MX-5 2.0 g thermal paste

The ARCTIC MX-5 is a high-performance thermal compound designed for CPU, GPU and power semiconductor cooling. It suits PC builders and upgraders who need reliable heat transfer without electrical risk. The metal-free formula ensures safe application on all cooler types. A spatula is included for precise spreading.

Metal-free composition and resealable packaging

The paste is completely metal-free, non-conductive and non-capacitive, eliminating short-circuit and corrosion risks. Carbon microparticles fill microscopic surface gaps for efficient heat dissipation. Viscosity of 550 poise and density of 3.2 g/cm³ allow a very thin, even layer regardless of application method. The resealable syringe prevents the compound from drying out between uses.

Operating limits and thermal resistance

The compound operates reliably from -40 °C to 180 °C for long-term stability. Thermal resistance is rated at 1.9 × 10^13 Ω·cm, supporting consistent performance over time. Non-drying and non-bleeding properties maintain the bondline integrity. Users requiring larger volumes or liquid-metal conductivity levels should consider alternative products.

Questions about this item

What thermal resistance does the MX-5 achieve at 1.9 × 10^13 Ω-cm?

The carbon microparticle formula fills microscopic surface dents to deliver very low thermal resistance with a minimum bondline thickness.

What does the 2.0 g syringe and spatula require to fit inside a build?

Only a small workspace for the syringe tip and the included spatula; no special mounting hardware is needed.

How do I apply MX-5 without trapping air pockets?

Spread a very thin, even layer with the spatula using the pea or line method shown in the gallery video.
