High Performance Thermal Compound for the Enthusiast
Turbo MX-2 is a high conductive and low resistance compound for components that require the best thermal dissipation. MX-2 is ideally suited for use in CPU, GPU cooling and other applications between power semiconductor components and heat sinks where high thermal conductivity is critical.

Main Features:
High Thermal Conductivity
Low Thermal Resistance
Non-Electrical Conductive
Non-Capacitive
Non-Curing
Non-Corrosive
No Bleeding
Odorless
No Metal Particles
Since the MX-2 compound does not contain any metal particles, there are no problems regarding electrical conductivity and capacitance. In contrast to silver and copper compounds, contact with electrical traces, pins, and leads cannot result in any damage.

Durability:
Curing and bleeding of the compound is not possible. In contrast to metal or silicon pastes, this compound does not show decreasing performance over time, does not need to be reapplied and has a durability of at least 8 years.

Performance:

- Tested with: Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 overclocked at 2.8GHz.

shawty, so when u wanna bring them in?

Yah overal 2degress of improvement and better applicability ...

... some one going to bring it in =_='' ...

Not yet, my supplier hasn't give any answer about it.

someone should start doing MX2 bulk for overclock user that need it....

There would be just matter of soon or later only ...

the most potential one would be the red hot panda ..that need it to cool itself ...
hhahah

anyone know how to use the mx-1 on core2duo processor? Follow the web instruction? My brother e6320 stock hsf no OC can reach 75c when load..

re-asking: may i ask how long b4 i should reapply new paste on proc and gc ?

around 4-5 months then can reapply with a new layer of thermal compound. But some people will reapply once every 6 months...

ok thx. wonder how was my previous com runs. ive never reapply it since i bought it 2002.

Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Paste Is Now Available In Malaysian Market!
Google Around For It In The Garage Sales Thread.

Performance

wow
awesome
now waiting for the AS6 to come
lets the battle begin

how come ? MX-2 outperform AC5 , unbelievable

maybe it's because of technology??? byw, can i replace my thermal pad/tape with a big drop if mx-2 for my mobo heat sink???

chipset heatsink? spread it evenly. For proc with IHS only use 'grain of rice' size.

LOL.
AS5 has been outperformed by MX-1 for a long time d.

Then along come MX-2 beat MX-1.

Yes it does outperform and i have tested it. AC5, the difference can only be seen if you are overclocking and its not really user friendly due to the silver content on its paste.. Being silver, i believe there is a chance for it to kill the board if you are not careful, but the Mx-1 and 2 are not like that.

and AS5, u must turn off your pc, let it cool, then on it again. Do that for 1 week so that the paste will reach optimum efficiency.

Dont need to do that for MX2

Well,, you will need 200 hours to let the arctic silver to really do its job.. and if u do it wrongly bleh, it melts and goes around your board... like mine it just went to some resistor i dont know how...

Guys, what is a proper good thermal epoxy/binder that can work temperatures below 0°C?

Need to use it with a peltier
