Will the stock cooler keep my i7 920 cool enough to run well for a while? I am not an overclocker. And if I was to overclock, I would get a better cooler, but for now, will stock be okay?

Intel makes sure your chip will run for 3+ years with everything at stock. They would not ship a cooler that does not do its job, because they would be flooded with RMAs.

was just searching for this answer as well! I think we should be fine, like they said why would they ship with the cooler if it didn't work? :) I doubt I will try and OC mine either.
