Good thermal paste for this kit?

[amuffin]

Going to purchase this kit soon: http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=59_202_604&products_id=26994 however, which thermal paste should I go with? I have roughly 10 dollars on a newegg gift card and I was considering some arctic silver 5. Is there a better or paste of equalivilence for the same price or cheaper?

Personally use the PK-1 - good stuff. All of them come in sizes that is way more than you'll ever need for multiple builds.
