Will I be able to achieve a 4.4-4.6 GHz OC on this build (http://pcpartpicker.com/p/20fny) without too much heat?
What kind of stable overclocking do you think is achievable with the i5-4670k and the CM 212 EVO in a T1 micro ATX case?

You should be able to get a moderate overclocks with this setup, the only worry i would have is the case.(I am not familiar with this case) Make sure you have clearance for that large heat sink and a decent path for airflow. What do you plan on using this for btw, you have alot of your budget sinked into the ram and cpu, depending on your usage that might need to be spread out more evenly.
It will mainly be an editing machine with some light gaming. I plan to add a nicer GPU in the future.
Ya, that gpu wont give you much in performance, you might even be able to get away with integrated graphics depending on the games you want to play. You also might want to throw in a 1 or 2TB HDD for that, that SSD will fill real quick.
Something like, 4.2-4.3 before it becomes an issue, as long as luck is on your side with the silicon lottery, and you can keep the voltages low.
Yeah I know a good internal TB isn't too much $ but that is a planned future addition as well. I have about 4TB in externals I'm using right now.
The T1 case is 169mm and the EVO 212 is 159mm. Anyone know a comparable cooler that is a bit shorter or should I probably just get a full ATX case?
what's your budget, and what are you using it for?
Build budget is already reached really around $670. Cooler budget is around $40 preferably less. It is mainly an editing machine. Would like to OC as much as stability will allow.
Probably not, my guess would be about 4.8-4.2
I've got a Phanteks PH-TC14PE with a 4670K and I've got a 4.4Ghz overclock 32 idle 59 is the highest I've seen the chip in gaming, but I've also got 14 fans, 2 blowing directly at my CPU cooler, 2 exhausting out the top, and another 2 on the cooler itself.
ehh you need about 750-800 for a decent 4670K overclocking rig, ditch the 5450 the HD 4600 is WAY faster
I would not trust EVGA PSUs or anything from them for the matter that isn't a GPU
