For most use cases it is extremely overkill, but if you plan to have it running full speed and full load 24/7, this is about the worst you may have to plan on. I'm doing it because of overclock testing.
Since we're doing heatsink show and tell... here's mine... (with some bonus cat hair)...

That's a 20x20x10mm heatsink which was US$4 for 5 from eBay on the processor, and 9x9x5mm heatsink on the RAM (not that it needs it, but I had it, so why not
) which was US$1.33 for 5 (also from eBay). Running an OpenMediaVault image and idling for most of the day, the CPU heatsink is just warm to touch, memory heatsink is cold, with an ambient temperature of around 23c atm.
