Where I certainly wouldn't pair this with the cheapest mobo out there, even if it might work, I feel like the thermal protections in place would have it work with almost any add on cooler probably at the expense of clock speed and thermal headroom.
I am seriously of the consideration to buy this myself just to screw around with. They have some (semi cruddy) Z chipset Gigabytes available cheap (open box) to go along with and I happen to have everything else sans a case to trim it out with....
my friend got T-boned and got a 30k insurance payout, and spent 6k making a custom loop rig.
now I have a burning desire to get a new case, new AIO, new mobo and new PSU, when I really don't need to

You could cut costs and end up with this. It would probably not be the best choice, but It shouldn't throttle under any reasonable workload.
