Unless you enjoy the sound of your pc taking off while gaming just get an aftermarket cooler. You need A cooler for any load, but the stock cooler will be fine (for intel anyway). If you are going amd i would just buy a cooler because it will throttle under heavy load with the stock cooler
 

Is the intel coolers loud?

 


VERY
 

What is a cheap cooler that ISN'T loud by will still cool it nicely? 212 EVO?
