Welcome to the forums my friend!

Do you have hot ambient temperatures (I.e. do you need a high performance cooler or just a budget friendly one?)
What is your budget?

budget would be a nice start but I would cautiously say the be quiet dark rock slim

be quiet! Dark Rock Pro, Noctua NH-D15, Phanteks TC14PE.

The big ones.

What is your budget so we can advise accordingly?

Dark rock slim is about where I would draw the line if you wanted to overclock.

If you just want it to run. Deepcool Gammaxx 400, Cooler Master Hyper 212, be quiet! Pure Rock Slim.

It will thermal throttle under a heavy load almost certainly, but if you are just gaming with it, these would do okay. Might not be that quiet.

If those are outside the budget, then you might want to consider a different CPU. If you are stuck with it, you could maybe look for a used/unused LGA 1151 Intel stock cooler, but make sure it was one that came with an i7.

A master liquid 240 lite can often be found for about $54. Thats what i conder the beginning of over clock terratory.

If you just want it to run then the hyper 212 evo. But it will likely throttle.

If you already spent $550 + memory then $54 is a small investment.
