The motherboard will not allow the CPU to be overclocked. The stock CPU cooler that comes with the CPU will be good enough to cool the CPU at stock temperatures.

Edit: The rules of intel's naming had me confused. ;(
But yeah, I wouldn't overclock on that motherboard.

true thanks I didnt even really look at the motherboard, thank you for checking

so, i shouldn't overclock?

well not unless you change your mb

will it make much of a difference if i overclock? i know ill need a Z97 ATX Mobo, but if i was to get a new mobo and overclock, will there be much of a difference from 3.3 to 3.7Ghz?

well 400 MHz is a significant difference when it comes to processor speed, now the reason its good to consider it earlier rather than later is because the components you pick may not allow for additional upgrades

your case supports full size atx mobos so you dont need an atx micro like you picked (although you could use it if you wanted to)

I wouldn't get a H60 though, the radiator is way too thin for it to be worthwhile.

well with a z97 i could upgrade to a 4670K which is more or less the same price for the CPU's, but i will need a z97 which is like $50, and i think my setup is good enough, don't you think?

I disagree, the H75 uses the same radiator with an additional fan for a push-pull setup and not until you get to an H80 does the radiator size increase and those are intended for much more intense rigs
