With a 400-500 budget you are asking a lot with a small budget. Since you want to overclock that means either you go with an i5 K (which is about half your budget) or an amd. Also do you need an OS?

H81 mobo and stock cooler would give you OC your G3258 to ~4.2 Ghz. For more you'd need an aftermarket cooler.
