Depending on the cpu, it will come with a cooler and preapplied paste

Depends on the CPU you're buying, some don't come with a cooler at all.

Yes. Although I do recommend getting a better thermal paste than the preapplied toothpaste, even an aftermarket cooler if you can. Stock intel coolers are pretty potate.

My work pc has an 8400 and a stock cooler, it got pretty loud and hot. Peak temp was ~75c. This just preference, but I'd rather my CPUs remain below 70 even under heavy load.

Not very loud, but audible.

Which is too loud. My clc does a nice and quiet job especially after the 4 new sp140 fans on it if I dont overclock too high.

Thats fine, under 85 or 90 is bad.

You don't need a aftermarket cooler for a i5 8400, even though I did. Specifically for Aesthetics.

Aftermarket cooler means ones you buy separately. So ones like CoolerMaster Hyper 212 Evo, Cryorig H7, Deepcool Gammaxx 400, be Quiet! Pure Rock, Noctua U12S and so on.

The paste comes preapplied on the cooler.
