Normally the part of the heat sink that is supposed to touch the processor, would already have the thermal compound applied on it if it's brand new

thermal paste can come in the colour white just keep that in mind
at the end of the day, it will not matter if it grey or white both will get the job done which is to keep CPU cool along along with CPU fan if you buy a CPU its should come with a Cpu fan with thermal paste pre apply if you are buying a 3 party CPU fan you may need to apply thermal paste to the CPU

If you do need thermal paste go with Arctic Silver purely for the price, it's a decent thermal compound if you don't have tons of cash to spend. Either way make sure you go with ceramic based.
