Is Intel Stock cooler good enough?

[frankeesh]

I got my Pc finally built , but sadly my old Cpu fan i was gona reuse wont work , i was wondering , does a simple stock cpu cooler work good enough for a Intel i5 4430?, socket is LGA 1550. All i do is Gaming and school proyects on it ... Will it not heat up alot and damage the cpu ? Will it be good enough?

This is the CPU cooler that im getting btw

yes it will keep it cool enough to work. especially a mid end i5 like that.

It will work, yes and with a locked CPU you can't OC anyway. I'd look for something a little better, but that's me

it will work. but why? not telling you to go for over kill like water cooling. but do get a after market cpu cooling.
if you are on a budget go for the evo212 sometime they are only 28cad.
if money is not a thing you can do the Noctua which are very good.
it not worth it to cheap out on a cpu cooling. that could be one of the cheapest upgrade for your computer. the stock cooling do suck very bad.
