Inscribed nobel topaz is the norm for warrior dps builds as it provides the warrior with the two most inportant stats +crit and +str; you could go with the green version if you're short on gold; otherwise for a lot of items such as the netherforce chestplate and red belt of battle a lot of people socket the items with 2x bold living rubies which are each +8 str gems. Personally I have never seen anyone using pure +crit gems outside of PvP. If you're short on hit you could always sacrifice a few slots for +8 hit gems. If you are unsure about going for the socket bonus or not always see if the gem bonuses outweigh the socket bonus or vice versa. Good luck on your warrior endeavors.

Pure strength gems in red slots, strength/crit gems in yellow slots. Blue slots are up to you, either strength/stamina or crit/stamina gems or just ignore the socket bonus and put pure strength gems in there.
Hit gems can be used when you are below the soft cap for hit rating (95/142 hit rating depending on talents), but that should only be a holdover until your gear improves.
If you get a meta slot,
Relentless Earthstorm Diamond
is the best thing to stick in there. That would also be a good time to put in a couple of gems that match your blue sockets, so you can fulfill the requirements for the meta gem.
