Hello, has anyone ever used the Arctic MX6 folder? According to the manufacturer, it is 20% better than the MX4.

I changed the thermal paste of the MacBook Pro 15" 2017, I used a thin layer of Arctic MX4 and it got worse. Before the change in stress mode it was not more than 80°C, now it is at 96°C.

I want to redo the application but I think about changing pastes, I considered using Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme but the manufacturer does not recommend it for high temperatures, not to mention that I will need to change more often.
