I just recently bought a new i7 9700K, and I have a new cooler delivered by Tuesday, but I wasn't sure if I could reuse my old cooler for now, until my H100i 240mm fan comes in Tuesday. Should I wait, or is it fine for 2 days?

i currently have 2100Mhz ram. i've read that the 8700K needs 2600Mhz for optimal performance, would 2600 be enough ? should i put in a little extra for 3000Mhz? thanks!
