You can still do 4GHz with the stock cooler, or would your friend like something compromised in the spec to fit a cooler into the budget? or add one later which is the best thing to do.

Hmm he says he doesnt want me to overclock as their is too much 'risk' so might as well leave out the 'K' series and aftermarket cooler!
