Intel doesn’t even sell their higher end chips with their stock cooler iirc, and people put heatsink coolers where the active cooling is parallel to the chip as opposed to directly on top of (if not liquid coolers) on the higher end/overclockable chips. Also it seems that generally the z class boards have higher quality vrms and significant passive cooling on top of their vrms, i could definitely be wrong though.
