Dosent cpu come with cooler?
Often yeah, if it's called "boxed" it's with a cooler, "tray" is without.
But the stock cooler runs hot and loud so I second the recommendation to replace it. NH-D15 is what I have but still wouldn't recommend it for you because it's expensive and a Cooler Master Hyper 212 / Arctic Freezer 34 is good enough for gaming and much cheaper. Really any tower cooler of decent size is decent enough so price is the most important aspect imo.
I run a nh-d15 on a 5800x. It's expensive, but I have to say at least on the 5800x it can cool the CPU so well that it never gets loud. At most I get a slight noise of air moving.
AMD's coolers aren't that bad. I would recommend giving it a shot before deciding to get a 3rd party cooler. 3rd party coolers are better, don't get me wrong, but your CPU will decidedly not be hot (as the below comment suggests) if you stick with just the stock cooler.
If you're looking for price to performance, then using the stock cooler seems like a pretty easy way to shave off 50 dollars. Besides, you can always buy a cooler later if the stock cooler ends up bothering you
