Use the paste that comes with the cooler.

I agree with Praesi it doesn't really matter too much if you want to save a few quid and go with something a little cheaper I wouldn't worry and say go for it, personally I've always used Arctic Silver but that's just because it was what I first had when I was a kid and I've just always rebought it, never had an issue, the 'better' thermal pastes tend to be maybe a degree or 2 in difference so not a huge impact
