stay with stock cooler
z370 chipset if you wanna oc later if not get w/e.
memory will depend on board, ideally you want higher mhz and lower cas.

Not sure what you mean by trash... Because it doesn't have RGB and an I/O shield cover? It has the best of the 4 phase CPU VRM's, solid amount of fan headers, decent enough UEFI...
You don't need a 6-8 phase VRM for an i5, but if you wanna waste your money I guess go ahead.
