ARCTIC MX-7 thermal paste, 2 g (ACTCP00089A), forms a heat-conducting interface between a processor and its cooler. It is listed for CPUs, GPUs, laptops and console processors, covering these processor cooling applications.
The paste is grey with a dense, viscous consistency. Its specified viscosity is 35,000–38,000 poise, with a continuous-use temperature range of −50 to 250 °C.
ARCTIC recommends applying it in a cross pattern. Once the cooler is mounted, its pressure spreads the paste into a thin, even layer across the contact surface.
