The only thing I don't "like" there is the motherboard. If you can afford a higher end P67 chipset board, like the P8P67 Pro from Asus or the ARock P67 Extreme4.
I'm very happy with the P8P67Pro, but have also heard a LOT of good things about the ARock board. For roughly $30 more it's definitely worth stepping up.
First question: are you going to keep up with Intel or do you have any desire to switch to AMD as far as processors go? I'm an intel man myself, but it affects the choice.

Socket 1155 mid i3
I also swear by Asus boards. Never had one die on me yet.

Those will put you right around the 300 dollar mark. If however you want to go down into the 200s, let's hop back down to a lower processor in the i3 line:
Socket 1156 i3 lower-end processor
And then grab this motherboard (thinner form-factor too):
Socket 1156 Asus board
And these will set you back only about 220-230 (I have Amazon prime so I don't see any shipping costs, but I imagine they aren't too steep).

Final note: I won't suggest a processor for this board because I would definitely put in one that costs 200+ dollars, but the Sabertooth is really a thing of beauty and it's made with some lovely ceramics that are guaranteed to last a lot longer than most traditional components:
