Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound for Enthusiasts

The Swiss cooling solution provider - Arctic Cooling has launched a new high performance MX-2 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. Tested with Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 overclocked at 2.8GHz, the MX-2 beats Arctic Silver 5 by 2'C in both idle and full load. The MX-2 compound is available now with a recommended retail price (excl. VAT) of 7.95USD/5.95 EUR. You can discuss the MX-2 performance in our forums here.

MX-2 FTW

I hope the dude that slams AC for "re branding" someone else's product posts again.Even if this MX stuff only matched AS5,I would still use it due to its longevity.

There's no press release notification in the TPU RSS feed.

I feel adulterated by dirty marketslushspeak. Shudder.

Please add one.
