Does this come with a stock cooler or is it just the chip?

The Intel Core i7-3770T only comes in tray so the cooling fan is not included.

It comes with a heatsink/fan and does not need extra thermal paste because the thermal paste has already been applied to it. Stock cooler is moderately loud if your case is within 2-3 feet from your ears. Idle is tolerable. It revs up when playing games and can interfere with your speaker volumes. After market cooler is considered.

Yes, it comes with a stock fan. If you are planning on over clocking, the 212 evo is probably the best you can get for the money. There are more expensive fans, but the 212 evo gets you the best bang for your buck in my opinion.

Probably noticeable in temperatures. I wouldn't worry though, the stock cooler is surprisingly efficient. Might be a bit louder aswell.

Hello!Yes,it includes the CPU cooler that is rather noisy under heavy load without overclocking. I bought a SilenX cooler 80mm Fan to avoid the nosie. As and advice,if I were going to buy some computer processor right now , I would rather to buy a Fx-8320 that includes a Water cooling system and that has a cost of 170 USD and whose socket is AM3+.Its a little bit more expensive but believe me, you will thank me for that.Its up to yours. Have a nice day!Also consider that AMD is about to release in june-july 2013 their new CPUS which has less energy consumption, and generate less heat, so waiting just a month could be a wise action.

Its the same as the retail processor, but the seller buys in bulk so its not in original packaging and doesn't come with a cooler. Same processor, though.

the stock heat sink that comes with this cpu is JUNK throw it away and buy something like a cooler master hyper 212 EVO this heat sink will keep your cpu much cooler

Yes, but I would suggest getting an after market cooler. Especially if you plan to do any overclocking at all. The stock cooler isn't that great and this particular chip runs hot under load.

Yes. "Processor in a box" retail comes with heatsink/fan and pre-applied thermal pad.

It comes with a stock fan, it gets pretty loud at times, I will recommend an aftermarket cooler/fan for overclocking

The OC'ed version has PNY's proprietary cooler on it ( not the reference designed cooler)

It doesnt come with liquid cooling but it is recommended. This chip runs VERY hot. I use a coolermaster v8 on mine (not liquid) and manage fine only getting close to "too hot" when i render. That being said watch ur system temps and know what is safe if your not going with liquid cooling. And make sure u have superb airflow in your case.

It does include a stock intel fan/heatsink. The stock cooling solution is not fancy, but particularly for the i7-4770S (65W SKU), it seems to be perfectly adequate. It's much better than Intel stock heatsinks were back in the P4 days, and is almost silent, even under load. That will obviously depend on ambient temperatures and what else is going on in your machine (and just how silent you consider "silent"), so I'm not saying that you will never want some upgraded cooling solution, but I'd say that the stock cooler is likely to be the right choice for the majority of people.

Yes it's included. If you want to over clock, I would recommend after market cooler, it may be a bit loud

I bought a (new) retail version. Which does come with a stock heat sink and fan with a four pin motherboard connector. BTW, the stock AMD cooler may look small, but it is quiet and works very well.

As I understand it the E520 comes stock with a Core 2 Duo E6300 so yes. I had to perform a BIOS update before adding this to my Dell. I even used to the stock cooler - no issues at all.

No you don't need an aftermarket cooler, if you don't over clock your computer. The fan that comes with your CPU is engineered for that type of CPU, and they tend to be quieter than the aftermarket ones. When I bought my CPU from Amazon, there was no fan/heat sink with it, so I had to get an aftermarket one. Check to see if it comes with one.
