Conclusion

After performing so convincingly in our tests, I know we’ll be using MX-2 for a long time to come since it completely blew away our expectations. Without a doubt, I’m totally satisfied with this product. There are so many things to like about this product and to tell you the truth, I’m really having a hard time thinking of any negative points. Its performance was at the top in every test while its easy of use in terms of spreadability was second to none and (unlike some competitors) it is not electrically conductive. The real icing on the cake is the fact that Arctic Cooling gives you more thermal compound (4 grams to be exact) than its competitors while maintaining a lower price than most of the other compounds on the market. It doesn't get any better than this folks!!

I personally believe Arctic Cooling has brought another small, yet great (and necessary) product into the retail market. They took their older MX-1 and reengineered the heck out of it in order to create the MX-2 compound we see here today. Our tests have shown that it is clearly a winner in every category. Being an enthusiast, I find myself always looking for ways to lower my temperatures in any way possible and just by applying MX-2 from Arctic Cooling, I can lower my temperatures by 1 sometimes 2 degrees Celsius over other, more expensive TIM’s.

While we can debate hours and hours over that one degree Celsius difference, one thing is abundantly apparent: the MX-2 thermal compound is not only a solid performer but it is also a great value.


Pros:

• Ease of use
• More compound for your money
• Not electrically conductive
• Easy to clean off
• Great Performance
• No Curing Time

Cons:

• None that I can think of
