Is a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO enough to cool the I7-4790k? Stock, I'm not planning on overclocking, yet. Nevertheless quite a few reviews mentioned that it runs pretty hot and I might need water-cooling to keep it at optimal degrees. So do I? (the case it will be in is a Fractal Design R4 window with stock fans, no extras)

At stock, even the intel cooler can do alright. Not at 100% load, but a 212 Evo should be more than enough at stocks and even good for a modest OC.
