I mostly use high concentration of IPA, so that it contains less water. Evaporates real fast.
Don't use non disposable fabric, unless you really intend to dispose it afterward. The paste that sticks to the fabric is quite hard to remove.
MX-4 is cheap and good, if you already have MX-6 then it's good too.
Difference between MX-4 and something like Noctua NT-H1 is most often 1-2 degrees, same goes for MX-6 and NT-H2 or other paste.
Going really expensive paste like Kingpin's or such is pretty much overkill for your CPU in my opinion.I cooled my 5600x back then using NT-h1 and a Hyper212. I had a leftover NT-H1, if I didn't I'd just get an MX-4.
where i live you pay just 1,5 € more for mx-6 (over mx-4) so id go for mx-6 just because its not much
