I plan on upgrading my processor to the 10700K and I read that most 115x coolers can be used on 10th gen processors, so can the BXTS15A be used for the 10700K assuming I have no plans to overclock? If not, what air coolers do you recommend under $100?

Yes, you should be just fine using this heatsink-fan unit. You will need to replace the TIM when you install it. I usually use Arctic Silver 5.
