Will the stock cooler that comes with the CPU innately be able to be installed to the motherboard?

Hi, this is going to be my first build, so sorry if the answer to this question is obvious, since I do not know.

I'm getting a core i5 7500 CPU that comes with a stock cooler. Will the stock cooler automatically be able to fit with my motherboard, which is the MSI - Z270 A PRO? Thanks, and again, sorry for the noob question.

It should fit with no problems.

Just be sure that your mobo is compatible with your CPU and it'll fit.
