Upgrading CPU

[HardcoreCrozby]

Quick question i have decided to up grade to the i7-8700K Coffee Lake however i am concerned about cooling. I am looking for the best or most efficient cooling solutions for this processor as i have been told while not even over clocked it has very high heat. This will be used for streaming and playing game son one pc. So just looking for best cooling and i have a short 200$ budget as i am purchasing this CPU. Thank in advance.

A good aftermarket cooler might help.The stock cooler should be sufficient, though.

The stock cooler will be enough technically, but loud. I'd suggest investing in an aftermarket cooler, you don't have to spend that much on it if you don't plan on overclocking, just take your time and find the one that does proper cooling at most quiet levels.

Though you should really ask yourself if you really won't overclock, as many times the answer may turn out that you probably will with such processor.
