i5 2500K was $219 and with a $35 Air Cooler I OC'd it to 4.2 Gig by pressing one button on the MSI P67A-GD65 motherboard.. easiest overclock ever.. only way to make it easier would have been for MSI to actually press the button for me
I used this, its awesome, silent, and I could beat you to death with it

You actually attach your motherboard to it, not the other way around.. but..can't hear the fan and its keeping my CPU under load REALLY cool.. like crazy cool..
