You don't need to have your heart set on the Hyper 212+. There are other suitable coolers. Pretty much any cooler that uses 3 or more heatpipes with a 92mm or larger fan and which has socket 1155 or 1156 mounts will be more than sufficient for medium overclocks of a 2500k. For instance, recently Amazon had the Corsair A50 for around $6 after rebate. That would have totally been sufficient.
I wish I knew about it when the rebate was still valid. Can you give me some other specific recommendations?
Edit: Ended up getting Cooler Master Hyper TX3
