as im replacing my cpu, i need to also replace the thermal paste that on my cooler.

i came across noctua's NT-H1 Tybrid thermal compound

is that a good thermal paste for overclocking? or are there any better ones?

will be used on a 10600k

TG Kryonaut > TG Hydronaut >= Noctua NT-H1/H2 ==  Arctic MX-4, or something along those lines

And keep in mind that better or ">" here means a difference you'll probably never notice realistically speaking. These are all top performers for non-metal TIMs.
