Hello guys, I was wondering if anyone could recommend whether or not I should buy a CPU cooler for my i5 3570k. I am not planning on overclocking, but I will be hitting the i5 pretty hard with gaming, it will be coupled with a GTX 270 2GB. So my question really is, do you think I should purchase a CPU cooler if I am not overclocking, or do you think the stock heatsink will be able to keep my i5 cool even with very frequent gaming?

If your not overlclocking your fine with the stock fan. I got my i5 3570k to 4.2ghz on the stock fan stable. If you do get a cpu fan, get a hyper 212 evo + there like $30 and very NICE!
