If you want to overclock, YES. If you aren't overclocking, it will still be more silent and run about 30*C cooler. The stock Intel is notoriously bad, trust me.
Now you can afford a 660 Ti.
Sounds like the after market cooler is worth it, especially for so little.
Would it be possible to get the price down at least another 20$ though? I don't know if you have PCPartPicker set to Canada, but it's at $819.72. 800$ is max.
This build is primarily for CAD, Revit and Photoshop. What's more important between a better CPU and a better GPU for those applications?
