ARCTIC AC Freezer 7 X on i5 4590. Worth it?

[Albert F]

I am debating if I should buy the ARCTIC AC Freezer 7 X for my i5 4590. I will be using this CPU in a rig that will most probably run day and night rendering 3D models and videos and occasionally gaming (lower end or exAAA titles). I am planing on taking the cooler forward  if I end up upgrading the cpu/mobo.

 

Do I really need a better cooler for this use case scenario and for this old chip?

P.S. I am not planing on overclocking or anything like that.

if the CPU already comes with a cooler and you dont plan to overclock it should be fine as it is, you are probably better off getting a better CPU instead of spending it on a cooler.
