No, it's not needed as most people aren't overclocking their CPUs like that, but it's very cool to have.

So i think my best option is the stock cooling hahahahaha! On a side note... it sure is nice having a pair of 16core Xeons with the V3 turbo unlock hack (all core max turbo nonstop! lol) 32 cores around 3.6GHz and 512bit memory access with 80MB L3 cache makes everything move like greased lightning.
Performance is a relative term - in terms of number crunching ability you can get far more from a 10 watt cpu now than you could a 100 watt cpu 20 years ago. Heat output is therefore subjective and what needs a massive cooler today needs a passive cooler tomorrow.
I have two Pentium II systems and they have massive stock heatsinks (but small fans), then I have a i7 4790k and 3770k next to them with tiny intel stock coolers 2/3rds the size or less...
Even if you're using a top of the line Noctua, these chips have to be power limited and undervolted if you're going to do productivity apps that peg the CPUs at 100%. (gaming won't peg either CPU at 100% so air is fine for that) And that's without overclocking. OTOH, this 240 AIO is one of the better ones and is just a little better than a NH-D15. You have to step up to the 360/420 AIO's to get a big boost over top air.
Amazon was good to me and issued rma, now waiting for replacement. Fingers crossed, the new one will be new(it's coming end of this week)
It's a great aio, but I wouldn't recommend a used one.
Maybe they want a fancy AIO with an LCD screen that costs double and doesn't cool as well.

Interesting. I thought gaming would be more demanding.
Thanks. I wasn't aware that most cpus don't include a factory cooler. I have not done any rebuilding for over 10 years now.

I think the 360mm would be fine even for the i9. I'm running a 240mm on my son's i7 and it's plenty.
