There's very little difference between TIM unless you use the liquid metal stuff. Either will do fine.

Hi, I have an AMD FX-6300 Black Edition and a Gigabyte GA-78LMT motherboard. I will be using the stock heatsink that came with the CPU and not overclocking, and I was wondering whether I should use some Arctic Silver Ceramique 2 I have or the stock thermal compound. Thanks for your time.

If you have some more money then go with the artic thermal paste however I had the fx6300 with the stock cooler and it was fine it didn't really overheat the only suspected issue I had with it was that something in my pc was awfully loud whether it was the case,GPs or cpu fans I don't know but it could have been the cpu fan
