Hello, I'm new here and I just got my Computer Parts completed
I got
Intel Core i5-8400 with standard Cooler on in
And I don't want to risk of overheating it.
I'm from Bosnia and Herzegovina and these parts cost a little bit too much lol.
So what do you recommend me, which Cooler should I buy
I'm little short of budget so I got like 50-60 USD right now when I transform it in Dollars of 50 € if you like...so I'm looking for something that is good for that kind of money, it doesn't need to be that quit I have sound isolation Case...I was thinking about Be Quiet Pure Rock...
I'll mostly use it for Gaming and a little Editing in Sony Vegas...
Thank you, sorry if there was a Post like this, this is my first time here Posting.

PS.
I have MS Black Widow Case it has 3 vents on it and I can add 2 more on the top of the Case...

The stock cooler is perfectly adequate. Its not great, and it's a little loud but, but it's a locked chip. Provided you have somewhat decent airflow, there's really no outright *need* for an aftermarket cooler.

So I don't have to worry about it?

I wouldn't, at least not initially.

Use it as-is for now. If you're seeing your temps get really warm, or the system get really loud (under 100% load) , then you could look to upgrade the cooler.... but I don't think it's necessary initially. Provided your CPU stays under ~80'C at 100% load, then you're fine.

Since demand on that cpu is somewhat low, most any of the decent 92mm/120mm budget coolers rated 130w+ will work great. Budget not being an issue in that sense, there's going to be only 2 restrictions on your cooler choice when and if you do need to upgrade. First will be your case, many cases simply won't fit many of the 120mm towers, not tall enough from the mobo to case side. The other restriction will be supply. For what's usually recommended in the US, you simply may not have access to or shipping might be cost prohibitive, so a list of available options/retailers will be needed.

I think that I wount have that problems we got a website in my Country and there is a lot of choices and my Case is Tower (not MidTower the bigger one) and has a lot of space from one side to other you can fit 2 Power Supplys and stil have space between...
But in case I would buy a new cooler I was thinking Be Quiet Pure Rock or Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO, I think the only diffrence is in the noise they make, so what do you think witch one is better?
