H67 is not for overclocking. P67 is for overclocking.

The setup is compatible and will overclock if you switch to a P67 board.

You need RAM. Get 4GB (2x2GB) or 8GB (2x4GB) of DDR3-1333 or DDR3-1600 rated at 1.5v. G.Skill and Corsair are good brands to look at.

Sorry I forgot to add that I did have RAM (4gb) already, do you know of a good p67 mother board on NCIX?

Nothing that's in stock, no.

When they come in:
ASUS P8P67 Pro/Evo/Deluxe (not the regular version or LE version)
MSi P67A-GD53/55/65/80

Either series gives great results and get great reviews.

When they do get more stock I will probably go with the GD53 or 55, also I have two questions. For graphics card, would you recommend:

MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr OC 880MHZ 1GB GDDR5 Dual DVI Mini-HDMI DX11 PCI-E Video Card
OR
GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 560 Ti 1GB SOC
OR
Your own opinion

And for processor, what is your preference for one? An AMD or Intel i5 or Sandy Bridge? (Not i7s)

Thank you for your help so far I really appreciate it

You can only use a Sandy Bridge CPU with these boards. Nothing else.

I'd probably go with the Gigabyte Super Overclock unless it was much more expensive.

And I've been spoiled by Sandy Bridge for over a month now. My 2500K runs at 4.8GHz in an ASRock P67 Pro3 mainboard. It's just awesome.

If they don't have new fixed ASRocks coming in by Wednesday or so of next week, I'll likely be switching to a different board like the MSi P67A-GD65 or Gigabyte P67A-UD4.
