I was wondering if this build was overclockable.
Detour
Im open to any changes to the build, especially if you feel anything in it is OVERKILL. In particular though I would like suggestions about aftermarket cooling, whether it be water cooling or just a better cpu fan. And also would like suggestions on a mATX case, but I do not want to spend more than 80 USD on a case.

If anyone needs to know I'm looking to play games @40-65 fps

 
Solution
Yes, it is overclockable. I'd say get the Cooler Master N200, that's my favorite mATX.

Why not get a cheaper monitor, and upgrading the GPU to a 270x and if you can get the 8350 instead of the 6300.

Yeah the fx 6300 is really overclockable. But you might want to get a cpu cooler for that if you plan on doing a decent OC, maybe a hyper 212. I have the fx 6300 in my build as well as an hd 7870. I run games pretty good but I do get some fps dips in some games, mainly because I use vsync otherwise I get screen tearing, but it's still a good mid-range build. Also your video card you might want to get a better one, like a 270x or something. I can't really recommend anything else because I don't know much but I figured I would give me advice since I have the same cpu and everything. I'm sure someone here can be more of a help. Good luck =D

Wouldn't happen to have a suggestion for a cheaper monitor would you?

Here is my build, you can take a look at my monitor there: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/qZjygs

I don't know much about monitors but I like mine a lot and its definitely way cheaper than yours, but its 21.5 inches though. Although I do get a lot of screen tears when my fps goes above 60 and I don't use vsync.

I'd go with the BenQ GW2255. It's a super nice 100 dollar monitor.
