Most coolers come with thermal paste.

Spend a few more bucks: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/nzxt-cpu-cooler-rcrst4001

Try a CM Hyper 212 Evo on Craigslist or something. It also comes with a tube of thermal paste that would last you maybe 3-4 builds depending on which method you use. (Pea size or down the line)

That seems pretty good any CPU cooler with direct touch pipes will greatly reduce the heat on the CPU

NEVER GIVE UP. NEVER STOP LEARNING. DONT LET THE PAST HURT YOU. YOU CAN DOOOOO IT
