A 2 or 4 gram syringe is enough for a single processor; the 8 and 20 g packs are meant for people who build machines regularly. The number in the ARCTIC MX series marks the generation: MX-4 is the most common, while MX-6 and MX-7 conduct heat better. Some sets include a spatula or cleaning wipes, which come in handy when removing old dried-out paste; Gembird's cheaper 1.5 and 3 g tubes are also available.
