so, my i7-8700k just arrived, and i realized it comes without a cooler (pleb me)
i'm looking to buy a cooler for it for general non OC use, (at most maybe get all cores to turbo to 4.7)
i have access to these 2 stores for the purchase:
Ivory (unfortunately no english site, but all product names are in english)
KSP (has english site, press US flag at the top left corner)

im looking to pay up to around 220NIS (currency in those sites)
if anything above that price is much superior, please let me know also.
most of the posts about coolers get answers with coolers i cant buy from here, thats why i decided to ask like this.
i hope you can help me
thanks in advance

@froggy, thanks for the reply, i cant get that cooler from any local shop, so thats not good for me (even if i had the option to order it from amazon it would cost me 90$ with shipping which is much higher than my budget)
@bmockeg, thanks for the reply, that cooler seems great, ill probably go for that one. is it strong enough to allow me to activate multi-core enhancement?
also how big is it? (i have a freezer xtreme on a different pc and it is annoyingly big)
 


For your use case, go with a Hyper 212 EVO. They are entry level aftermarket coolers. As bmockeg said, they are all going to be big because the 8700k is a hot CPU.

I know about the two models you suggested, since any search for "8700k cooler" yields such suggestions.
However, i don't have anywhere to purchase them from in my vicinity which is why i asked for options which appear in those 2 sites that i linked.
I ended up buying the Freezer 33 plus, thank you all for your help
thank you for trying to help
