Surely change that MoBo. Its just a waste if you keep that. You have a GPU with a k proccy. So with this H67 board you can't OC. If intel P67 is not available then go with Asus/Gigabyte/MSI mobos.

If ur too worried about overclocking hazzle buy msi p67a-gd55 which has 1 touch oc genie,Which can oc u r proccy to 4.2ghz with entering the bios and its also within ur budget.
New generation proccys like k series are designed for ocing with unlocked multiplers and to withstand extreme ocing without any sideeffects unlike previous gen proccys.If u have a well ventilated cabinet then dont worry about temps.

completely agree scudmissile007. Get the mobo he has suggeste.
You are beginner its ok. But if wouldn't have bought the GPU intel H67 would have been the choice. But as you have already bought Radeon 6850, so better exchange the H67 for a P67 board.
BTW is your dealer ready to exchange..???

Ooops, sorry.
Yes, you can very well OC SB 'k' CPUs to 4+ GHz with the stock cooler itself. SB CPUs are much cooler, so no problem.
But before OCing watch some videos about it in Youtube for a clearer idea.

Not only msi but asus, gigabyte etc also provide auto oc tools.

Better u wait a little for z68 mobos. Or get a Gigabyte P67A UD3 B3 imo.

Which mobo are you intended to buy..??
BTW there is no link of mobo with FPS. It actually depends on the processor and GPU in use.
There is absolutely no need of Additonal CPU cooler. The stock cooler is sufficient as SBs run much cooler than any other proccy. Even if you OC i5-2500k to 4+GHz, you wont require any other CPU cooler.

there is no risk buying online. But provided you buy from reputed sites. Many of our forum members have bought many parts from different online shops and are really satisfied.

there is always a risk buying online.

but if you buy from reputed sites that use industry standard encryption (minimum 128-bit SSL) then the risk is greatly minimized.

personally i prefer shops as i can see what i buy and examine it first.but if you have no choice, then buy from secure and reputed online stores ;)
