Since the i7-6700K does not come with a stock cooler, you need to buy one.
But, skylake 14nm runs cool; you do not need exotic cooling.
Most any tower cooler with a 120 or 140mm fan will do the job.
I like the noctua coolers, they are easy to mount and the newer s versions have better clearance.
That would be the NH-U12s or NH-U14s. The NH-D15 is a will do the job, but it is HUGE.
One has to be careful about tall ram heat spreaders and close quarters with some graphics cards. The newer s versions fix that.
You will usually run out of safe vcore limits before you reach cooling limits.

FWIW
As of 2/16/16
What percent can get an overclock at a somewhat sane 1.40v Vcore.

I7-6700K
4.8 18%
4.7 56%
4.6 87%
4.5 100%
