Solution

This is a very good heatsink: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103099

And get some Arctic Silver 5 - apply a very thin, even layer per instructions at their website.

it's the stock one that came with the i7 and the problem right now is i ran out of thermal paste and the 4th pin on the heat sink won't go in all the way im just gonna buy some more paste and a new heat sink hopefully that works
