I'm building my first pc so i'm new to this. The MSI r9 270x apparently comes factory overclocked so that means it'll run hotter than the other brands right? Will the stock cooler on the 6300 be ok for the card at least for a while or no? I know getting an aftermarket cooler is recommended but i'm going slightly over budget as it is and i'll be buying one in the future.

The graphics card wont affect the heat of the processor. So the stock cooler for the 6300 is fine. And the 270x has its own cooler, which is more than adequate.
