I really want to get a nzxt phantom 410 to make my friends jealous haha. Iade this build:

And I was wondering if I still needed to have the CPU cooler or could I get away with not having one? I was planning on OCing the 2500k so I really didn't know. The case has like 3 fans or something and I was hoping someone could tell me from experience if I needed the CPU cooler or not.


Thanks for the help :)

If you plan on overclocking the CPU then yes, you need a CPU cooler. The CoolerMaster Hyper 212 Evo is only around $30 and should get a 2500K to its sweet spot in the 4.5Ghz range. It's a better cooler than the 212+ and worth the extra $10.

Rest of the build looks pretty good.
