No point in pairing a K(unlocked) processor with an H67 motherboard.
READ THIS:the Intel LGA 1155 motherboard thread
Online prices are generally higher than local market prices.
Go for this:
Intel 3.3 GHz LGA 1155 Core i5-2400/2500 Processor
Intel DH67CL Motherboard
WD Caviar Blue 1 TB HDD Internal Hard Drive (WD10EALX)
Gigabyte AMD GV-R7850OC-2GD 2 GB GDDR5 Graphics Card
Corsair DDR3 4 GB (1 x 4 GB) PC RAM (CMV4GX3M1A1333C9) X2
Seasonic 520W Power Supply (S12II-520)
Corsair Carbide Series 400R Mid-Tower Case (CC-9011011-WW)
Asus DRW-24B3ST Internal Optical Drive
Price difference between i5 2400 and i5 2500 is about 1k and i5 2500 is clocked 0.2GHz higher than i5 2400.
Go for WD caviar blue instead of Seagate Barracuda 1 TB HDD as the caviar blue has
2 years warranty compared to Barracuda's 1 year.
With i5 2400 the total price of the config in local market would be around 50k.
With i5 2500 it would be around 1k higher.
If you buy most components online then price would be somewhat higher.
You can also opt for corsair cx500v2 which is available for around 3.5k

is going for the i5 2500 processor worth the extra 1k ?

imo NO

Away from Forums, Again!
Yes, as it is a locked processor, a 200 MHz hike in Clock Speed will turn out to be favorable for you. In gaming, it won't really matter, but in other applications, it might. But the thing is, 1k is a bit of steep. So it's your choice if you want to spend another 1k. If you can, then it's not a bad option.

DZ68DB is not a good choice. Get Asrock Z77 Extreme 4 @ 10K.
Dont buy Cooler Master PSUs . Get Corsair GS600 @ that price. Some of our member has recently bought it from Smcinternational .
Buy 4 GB RAM 1.6 GHZ AND upgrade to 8 GB when needed or 2x 4GB DDR3 1333 MHZ @ 2.5K.
CM elite 311 is overpriced. It should be @ 2K
Get 1 TB HDD @ 4.9K.
Get Gigabyte HD 7850 @ 15.5K
These all options will reduce some price and you will be able to get a good motherboard.
