one friend of mine was asking me to give him a build within 60k BDT or 700 dollars and he was on tight budget but the parts In Bangladesh is expensive from US Or Canada for Taxes and others i completed a build but there was no money left to buy an aftermarket cooler. 

 

So,my question is 'Can i Run i5 8400 nicely with Stock Cooler or I need a Aftermarket Cooler'

The i5 8400 is fine to go with the stock cooler, aside the bad noise it'll work just fine.

Yes the 8400 is more than fine with the stock cooler. I run this in a rig.

Probably gaming or helping technophobes with tech...

Its locked CPU... and its not of hot variety either. Stock will be fine, and OP/their friend can setup manual volts if it would get toasty.
