Q: Does this come with the wraith spire cooler?

A: Yep it does come with the wraith spire cooler, and it's actually good for a stock cooler. I overclocked my 1600 to 3.8 GHz on all cores and have had no trouble keeping it cool.

Q: Does this come with thermal paste?

A: Yes, when you buy a processor and it comes with a stock cooler it will almost always have thermal paste pre applied.

Q: Is this a crazy deal at $99? I want to game at 1080@144, can this do it?

A: It all depends on what graphics card you’re using, I’ve seen this paired with gtx 1080s before so i don’t think it’s too much of a bottleneck.
