Should i just go for a 

Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO

instead then?

It is cheap and it should keep my cpu cooler than stock.

cryorig m9i is cheaper, smaller and performs the same. don't listen to captainsav, cpus last a LONG time even if its at 70-80 degrees celsius(which stock coolers are usually at). also, you don't need a 120mm liquid cooler, stock or a cheap aftermarket one will do fine since the 6500 can't overclock.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Heatsink: Gelid Phantom Black GPU: Palit RTX 3060 Ti Dual RAM: Corsair DDR4 2x8GB 3000Mhz mobo: Asus X570-P case: Fractal Design Define C PSU: Superflower Leadex Gold 650W

I do, but I really don't think it is necessary for an i5 6500. Maybe if i went with an i5 6600k

That's why you're going to spend 30 bucks more to get a 6600k, and 30 bucks less than you were originally willing to spend on that dark rock and get a corsair H55 or H60.

See how I just reverted the value of your dollar?

that's all on you if you ever want to take it up a notch. I hate to cut you short man but I got to hit the hay. If you are only planning on doing moderate gaming then I wouldn't even bother getting a 250 dollar graphics card. I just don't want you to get caught up in the moment and end up wanting to run high end or something and not have the pc to support it.

Should i just get this for "futureproofing?". I mean this will probably last a long time if i only play games like CSGO and League of Legends. However, if i get shiz parts i won't be able to multitask right? I multitask a lot on my laptop, and it gets pretty bad with only 4gb of ram. I will also do alot of schoolwork on my pc, and i am going to do IST at school (yes i am really young but enthusiastic about pc's) and will probably have to do some coding. So if i get that bundle i should be good to last a long time yeah?
