Yeah I have a Microcenter around here, but is that cooler any good? I thought that was the cooler that came with the 2700x's anyway?

Hey, I'm building a new system, and looking for feedback. Not married to anything on my list, though I do like eVGA's customer service from previous exp. I have a Corsair HX650 and an HX750 from a previous build, as well as a 1TB Crucial MX300 for storage that I got for silly cheap, and Windows...
