Both are good Pastes with small, if any difference in performance. 

This is between the IHS and the cooler, correct? You are putting the liquid metal between the chip and the IHS and then the paste on top of the IHS?

Ah yes, they reseal the chip I believe so you are good to go.  Yes, both the Noctua and ICD are very good pastes.
