You can run the stock cooler , it comes with thermal paste pre-applied but don't overclock with it.

Most thermal pastes will do , The Evo 212 is a great aftermarket cooler !! Great choice.

The Hyper 212 Evo comes with paste and YES you need paste. If you don't apply it, the heat cannot be effectively transferred between the CPU and the heatsink.

The best paste around is Arctic MX-4 if you want to get some of your own. http://www.amazon.com/ARCTIC-MX-4-Carbon-Based-Thermal-Compound/dp/B0045JCFLY

Why did you pick an 850w PSU? You only need a 600-650 watt or so.
