The Cooler Master hyper 212+ for a cheap and good one, and the noctua NH-D14 for an amazing one.

Yeah, but Thermalright Silver Arrow and Corsair H100 are also great. I think there are about 10 different coolers I'd possibly recommend, but their names evade me for most of them now.
I second this - the corsair vengeance low profile RAM make it much easier to fit things into place nicely.
Corsair A70 is my personal choice. Nice on a budget, 2 fans included.
The biggest and baddest currently is NH-D14
There are quite a few I can recommend too -
212+
A70
H50
H80
H100
Frio
NH-D14
Actually, I think three different coolers already passed it; Thermalright Silver Arrow, Corsair H100, and some other one whose name slips me entirely now. And yes, that's at overclocks.
Though I'm too tired to dig up the particular reviews. z.z

Looks good, not too exspensive either. If I was to OC I wouldn't like push everything to the limit.
I don't know how tight your budget is, but if I was you id get a Z68 Chipset motherboard, for better future proofing, its only been rumoured and not confirmed the next family of Intel chips will still work on the z68 Chipset, at least the earlier ones.
The z68 boards are more likely to have SLI/X Fire so you can put another card in down the line, to make your system last you a bit longer.
Yesterday is history, today is a gift, tomorrow is mystery.
If it's going to be backwards compatible with Z68, it will be backwards compatible with the P67 as well as any other standard LGA 1155 socket.
