everything looks great except if you plan on overclocking then you need an aftermarket cpu cooler like the Hyper evo 212

Is there a limit to how much I can OC with that? B/c I had seen lots of people getting the h60 or h80 with this CPU

Of course there's a limit unless you have an endless supply of liquid nitrogen to keep it cool. The Hyper 212 EVO is just better than the stock cooler we'd presume you'd be using since you haven't told us otherwise. If you are set on overclocking it quite high, get water cooling (cant suggest which one because I have no clue).

I just realized I asked a dumb question. I meant to ask, what is the OC limit for the hyper evo 212. I don't plan to OC over 4.2ghz. If I don't OC, I don't need the evo 212, right?

If your not going to overclock, its not essential that you have an aftermarket cooler, as the stock one will be adequate.

you can get a stable overclock at 4.5 ghz with the evo so yes it will be more than adequate for your needs
