What are you guys feelings about using aftermarket heatsink/fans on the CPU at this phase? I've been told that getting a Zalman cooler like this: Newegg.com - ZALMAN 9500A 92mm 2 Ball CPU Cooler - CPU Fans & Heatsinks makes a big difference.

Is that something to worry about later on if I decide to go the overclocking route and otherwise the heatsink that comes with the CPU should be sufficient?
