Both of the builds posted by me have cpu coolers and they perfectly adequate for all uses. You can add one later if you like.

The Xeon e3-1240v5 will perform identically to the i7 6700 as they are basically the same chip.

Here's my suggestion. Also getting everything to Amazon and newegg is tricky. I suggest just buying from where suggested on pcpartpicker.
