Should i go with a stock intel cooler that comes with the i7 9700f? Or should I find a better cooler. I dont care about noise, just worried about it overheating.

it's not going to overheat with average use, at least it shouldn't, but i would recommend a better cooler, yes.

yes, it will keep it cool enough even while gaming. worst case scenario is it doesn't cool enough, or thermal throttles for some reason, or it just isn't as cool as you'd like, you can always replace it later.

A, buy Ryzen...

B. Just grab any of the $20 4 heatpipe 120mm air coolers

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?
