Stock cooler I3

[Vale]

Are these any good for I5 chips? I have an I3 4130 and have the option to buy fairly cheaply an I5 4460, but it's without a cooler. Will mine cool sufficiently?

Possibly.

It will be noisy under load
But will keep the cpu under 90 degrees

All 1150 Socket coolers are the same.

I had a 4670K running with the stock cooler for about a year. It was fine at stock speeds, don't think it went above 75C under load. I then decided I wanted to OC and upgraded the cooler.

I think i3 cooler were all Ally and the i5 and up were Ally with a copper core? Could be wrong.

^ I'd buy that. Can't go wrong! Cheap yet veeery effective.

Until recently, all the Intel stock coolers were ally with a copper core - both my i5 and a Pentium came with one of these.

I think with Skylake, they've cost-cut on the stock cooler and removed the copper core. In addition to only providing it with a non-K CPU.

Even this would be better
