Now im gonna Translate it:
Processor
Cooling for Processor
MotherBoard
Case (I really have no Idea if thats the name... the damn Box you put everything in it...)
Extra cooling for the Case
Memory (RAM) X2 (8GB)
Hard disk
Graphics card
umm.. this disc drive thingy...
Screen
and the rest is useless... just them building it for me etc...
Now is it a good build? it sums for a total of 1050$.
Now can i do OC for the Processor or any other part?
Thanks!

You don't need P67 if you're not going to overclock - H77 covers all the bases and is far less expensive. Then you can use the difference to upgrade your GPU to the Radeon 7850. And then upgrade your PSU to a 500W or 600W model to add room for a second later on.

Now I want to OC- I just don't know if i CAN.
I couldn't find any H77 on the website from which im buying my computer, but they sell the P67 on a lower price then it should be. ( around 78$ instead of 113$.)
Now about the Graphics card: http://www.hwcompare.com/12078/radeon-hd-6870-vs-radeon-hd-7850/
it says that the 7850 isn't THAT better then the 6870, and is around 61$ more expensive.
PSU- upgrade it for a room for a Graphics card?... well the PSU comes WITH the case, not seperatly, so i cannot upgrade it unless i choose a different case aswell, and it might cost me even more...
so can i even OC the Processor?

Those aren't the most accurate benchmarks on the planet but this will give you a bit better info: http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/540?vs=549

Actually I said upgrade it for adding a second graphics card down the road - that will give your system a bit more longevity.

so can i even OC the Processor?

You can OC the CPU if you have a "K" (unlocked multiplier) model and a motherboard that supports it. The bad thing about P67 is it won't support newer CPUs out of the box unless you update the BIOS.
