You can probably get the 3900X stock cooler for cheap, that'll do.

Buy a 212 EVO instead,It's much better and in a similar price.

Yeah I was thinking cheaper, like 10 bucks. 25 gets you something better indeed.

They didn't include a stock cooler since they know it will run super hot and they have no point in wasting metal on something no one will use
