Im not sure if i need a cooler, im sure its a nice to have, but i dont want anything that is unnecessary. I wont be overclocking but will be doing intensive gaming.

The stock cooler has a heatsink and a fan, the same as the hyper 212 evo, the hyper 212 is basically a beefier version of stock cooler

when you buy a boxed cpu it comes with a "standard" / stock cooler

edit: usually a bit noisy and doesn't win any awards for keeping the cpu cool but it works. aftermarket coolers are much bigger and will keep the cpu cooler while still generating less noise

so the stock cooler is an inbuilt thing within the CPU or an external fan to be placed on the CPU?

If i were to get the CM 212, it will replace the stock cooler? Yes?
