9800x3d with D15 runs cooler now
This is not a scientific test that I did but HWmonitor was showing my 9800x3ds temps in the mid 90's with my noctua nh-d15 and trying to climb while playing cyberpunk and skyrim remastered. HWmonitor was showing temps in the color red as if to signify danger and probably throttling. This was with arctic mx-4 which has always been great in the past. I tried re-applying the mx-4 but it made no difference since the spread of the paste was already perfect. After applying mx-6 in the recommended x pattern HWmonitor no longer shows temps in the red but the processor still uses available temp headroom to run faster. I've seen it go into the 90's but most of the time it's in the low 70's while gaming and the readings never flash danger any more. I know mx-6 didn't lower it 20 degrees so the super high temps may have been a fluke before but it did make a decent difference for sure since HWmonitor shows highest temps during extended gaming and it never goes critical.

Applies easy and works great
Works great. Built my own computer again in a long time and used this as the thermal solution for my processor.This applies easily and spreads easily, not sure about the longevity though, but unless you go with something like the Honeywell PTMs, you'll probably need to re-paste at some point.I would say, dig around and see if you already have a tube lying around from a previous build. I also used the same product when I helped my friend build their computer a year ago, but found that tube after I bought this again and used it.

Al parecer funciona bien
Excelente, aún estoy en periodo de prueba de la pasta térmica, lo usé en mi procesador y cambie a una refrigeración liquida 240mm, anteriormente tenía uno de stock de amd y en juegos exigentes llegaba a 84°. Con la nueva pasta y la refrigeración liquida llega a 70° si bajo considerablemente. Al parecer si funciona la pasta termica

Upgraded PS4
I know this is more meant for PCs, though this worked perfectly on my PS4. I was able to get it to run more quietly and I could be biased but it ended up running better too. Considering that the old thermal paste on there was 5 years old and completely dried out, it is safe to say that I increased the longevity of my PS4.

Easy to Use
10/10 My laptop's CPU is running up to 15 °C cooler! The product was very easy to use and came in a small package. This is a great value and highly recommended if you need to reapply thermal paste.

Not a great experience, but competent so far.
I don't have any long term feedback on this yet, so I can't speak on how it holds up over time, but so far as I've tried applying it, it's a thicker paste, almost clumpy, and harder to work with than some other solutions, including MX5. I trust the Artic Silver brand that the thermals will be fine, and so far they are. I've noticed no overheating issues with any of the servers it's installed in (1u blade servers in a Dell C6320 chassis). I can't say if the thermals are better or worse than any other competitors right now due to not having a heterogenous cluster, but the nodes with this paste aren't overheating any.

Tried and true performance
I love the performance of this paste. I use it for my gaming rig with a 9800X3D and for my server (had to repaste GPU after changing thermal pads). The paste always produces consistent results.

Very Effective Thermal Paste
Really effective to keep the CPU temp in control. This amount can be applied more than 3 times. The screenshot is my third attempt after figuring out that my old CPU cooler was broken.
