Building a budget system for general purpose and moderate gaming. No overclocking.
Reusing old uATX case w/ limited cooling.
Can only put a 92mm exhaust, no front intake possible.
cpu = i7 3770 Ivy Bridge (77 watts)
gpu = EVGA GTX 660
mem = 2 x 8GB 1600 Sniper
HDD = 1 x 2.5 inch and 1 x 3.5 inch (no SSD)

Should I use an after market cooler on the CPU ??
Any suggestions which one ??

Thanks in advance !! :)

No, you don't need any aftermarket cooler. Stick with the stock cooler and it will do the job and if still desperate then I would suggest changing the case not buying the aftermarket stock cooler because that cooler will not be able to help you much because of limited exhaust.
