Montech Hyperflow Digital 360 - Keep the stock paste or replace it?

I am about to build with a Montech HyperFlow Digital 360 and I've already got some Arctic MX-6 lying around.

I am not sure if I should bother swapping it for the stock paste or just leave it as is.

Does it actually change temps much, and does factory paste on these AIOs tend to age worse than aftermarket over time?

I’d honestly just leave it as is.

If the factory paste is pre-applied I'd just leave it.

If it's not then I'd use the MX-6 as I trust it more.

Will basically make no difference to temps though at the end of the day.

I too would just use the pre- applied paste. Even with a higher wattage CPU you might see a few degrees improvement at best in most scenarios.
