You want to go with the lightest/thinnest weight oil for your climate conditions. However, for most drivers, this will be a 5W30. Your knocking issues are probably not related to the oil itself, directly (are you sure it is knocking, and not pre-ignition or another issue). Here is some information about knocking:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_knocking
