I want play as many games i can. From atari to PS1.
You won't need a fan and heat sinks for that. Those are only necessary if you overclock your Pi, and the Pi 4 can play all 8 and 16 bit consoles as well as most PS1 and even Arcade games up to the early 2000s perfectly fine with with its stock clock speed of 1.5 Ghz (maxmum, as the Pi will dynamically change its speed based on demand, running normally only at 600-800 Mhz). In my experience, N64 is 50:50 with stock speed, whereby a good number of games may require overclocking.
That said, my Pi 4 can handle moderate overclocking to 2 GHz in its passively cooled aluminium case Argon Neo. The same company offers another case called Argon One that can be cooled passively as well as actively with a fan. Both got many positive reviews.
