1. Anyone know what the dimensions of the cooler are/where to find them?
or alternatively would it fit into this case: be quiet! Silent Base 801 tg Case

2. If I plan to oc my cpu will the stock cooler be enough or should I buy an aftermarket one?

Thankyou!
 
Solution
The AMD cooler will definitely fit into that case. I do not recommend using the AMD unit to OC. It will run hotter and louder than a quality aftermarket unit.

If you intend to OC, buy an aftermarket CPU cooler.
To be honest, I just upgraded to the 3600. I would actually recommend an aftermarket cooler for that cpu anyway even stock. The way AMD seems to like to run them hot now is a little disconcerting. I have a Wraith Prism that I ran on my 1700x when it was installed. And under full load stress test, my 3600 is hitting 71 C. Which is ok I guess, but could only imagine what the stock cooler would be like. Keep in mind with my Cooler Master MB511 case, I have 6 120mm fans in that as well.
