Making a PC Build with partpicker and it's saying I need a cooling system for a Intel Core i7-6700K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor but I have no interest in overclocking. Do I need the extra cooling still?

The i7 6700k does not include any cooler - so yes you need to buy one. A Hyper 212 EVO will work just fine and is cheap. I use a Corsair H80i GT with mine and it works wonderfully!

If you are not interested in overclocking, why are you buying a "K" series processor though? They make a i7 6700 non k as well.
