If I can buy an h100 for around $50, should I? Will it hold up against a 4670k OC'd to around 4.6 ghz?\

That is a pretty decent price as long as the H100 is in good condition. I would get it as long as it isn't too old or broken. As for what kind of OC you will be able to achieve that all depends on the processor, but the H100 will help keep it nice and cool :)

My Current Build: 

Intel i5 3570K @ 4.4GHz 1.11V, Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO, Asrock Z77 Extreme4, Corsair Vengeance 8GB 1600MHz, Samsung 840 EVO 250GB, Asus GTX 760 DCII Overclocked, Corsair CX600M

depends on what voltage your 4.6 OC is?

 

should be pretty good for overclocking in general. $50 new or used?

Well since I haven't gotten a cpu cooler yet I haven't tried much. And I think 4.6 is being a bit optimistic... But I'd say no more than 1.25 and it's used

just above stock voltage the 100 will be fine.
