Im getting an i5-6600k and do you guys think a Cooler Master Hyper T2 would be good for cooling it? I already have one so i would rather use that and not spend the money on another one. I plan on overclocking it. Thanks!

Try the existing cooler and see how temps are for the amount of OC you are capable of getting. But keep in mind, many coolers require removing the motherboard to attach hardware. That is, unless the access hole in the case's m/b tray is large enough to to the work. Not always the case.

69C is recommended max. 100C is where the CPU throttles to try and save itself.

I would go by the 69C temp except for occasional peaks above that.
