I just bought a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO CPU Cooler and got the thermal paste which comes with it but before purchasing i got a Innovation Cooling Diamond 7 CPU Thermal Compound Paste.

Im thinking the IC paste is better?

I bought the Innovation Cooling separate but the company cooler master supplied there own.
But when i researched thermal compound IC was one of the best.
 
Seriously, unless you're trying to squeak the last bit out of an overclock, any decent thermal compound will do the trick and doesn't make a huge difference at all; 1-2C at most for the best compounds out there. I would use the Diamond 7 since you already bought it.
