If you're not gonna overclock then there's no need for an aftermarket cooler - t stock cooler will b enough - and u can also save by getting a cheaper mobo n PSU

Spend some of t cash u saved by stepping up t a hybrid drive (an SSHD) which will have your OS n apps loading at SSD speeds - a huge day to day benefit
