Does this come with any kind of heatsink/ fan or do you have to get one separately?

It comes with a heatsink/fan combo but it's garbage. It's fine for light to moderate CPU load but with sustained load on all 8 cores at 4.5 GHz it will overload the cooler pretty quickly. It took me about 30 seconds to hit 90+C with Intel's XTU stress test.

base is 3.0 ghz, how can i utilize the advertised 4.5 ghz?

The max turbo speed of a single core is 4.7GHz. The processor itself decides how fast it can safely "turbo" a single core. Keep in mind that rarely will all 8 cores be running at the "base" 3GHz speed since the cores are always dynamically throttled or sped up to give max performance while also saving as much energy as possible. If you want to actually overclock the whole processor, then you should look at the Core i7-9700K.

Does the Core i7-9700 have on board graphics? Thanks

Yes it does, UHD 630 (https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/191792/intel-core-i7-9700-processor-12m-cache-up-to-4-70-ghz.html)

Can ddr4-3333 memory be used with this core i7 9700? don't think the 9700 can be overclocked.

I have DDR4-3200 working with it. Not overclocked.
