Is a separate cooler necessary for a high end PC?

[Raanaa]

If I am using two gtx 980 ti GPUs with an intel skylake i7, would extra cooling be necessary? I am supposed to use one 4K monitor with all settings of a game maxed out.

Do you mean upgrading your case fans or installing an aftermarket cpu cooler?

I mean only a cpu cooler.

CPU coolers aren't necessary unless you are overclocking or you don't like the stock fan (or there isn't one.) If you have an i7-6700K though you might as well pick up say a Hyper 212 EVO so you can overclock later.

I 've heard that overclocking ruins your hardware sooner. So should i go for a K processor and a Z170 motherboard?

It may ruin your hardware sooner but it gives mou more performance out of a CPU.If you are not planning on overclocking,you should stay away from K models.

Do you have an estimate about how soon I will start having side effects of overclocking?
