For the Rysen 2700X, is the stock fan good enough for home video, browsing, some light gaming etc...? Otherwise, what would be a good fan under $100 mark please?

Yip, its decent enough and will even handle some moderate overclocking as well. You can of course also apply good thermal paste to help temperatures a bit.
Anyways, to confirm how well the cooler performs, load a few games, and use Afterburner with RTTS to keep an eye on temperatures and take it from there. Or use Prime95, do a stress test and see if you're comfortable with the highs.
