As long as you don't overclock it should be fine. Just check your temps during gaming to make sure.

Yes, however if you're overclocking it will overheat.

Stock coolers are absolutely fine for gaming. Bottom line is, if you bought it, used the stock cooler and it burnt out - you'd be more than within your rights to get refunded.

Third party coolers are only necessary when overclocking - basically turning up the speed of your processor higher than its factory settings.

So yeah, dont worry about, you should be fine :)

Look for that processor
The stock cooler is sufficient

But u have an unlocked processor so u ll o.c. In near future so i wud reccomend u to get a hyper 212 evo for 30$ this will lower ur heat from day 1

I had to get an after market cooler since my i5-3570K was getting to low 80s in far cry and bf3 at stock speeds. Now they top out at mid 60s with an evo 212 and at 4.2ghz.
