- The surfaces of processor chips and cooler floors are covered with microscopic dents. ARCTIC‘s MX-5 thermal paste is composed of carbon microparticles which fill these cavities.
- This creates a surface conducive to extremely high thermal conductivity, guaranteeing fast and efficient heat transfer from the CPU or GPU to the cooler.
- Unlike with liquid metal or pastes containing metal oxide, you don't have to worry about short circuits as the MX-5 itself is not conductive, and using it will not cause corrosion damage.
