How much can I oc this w/o damaging the parts. Anyways.. I am just so freaking excited cuz I've been without a computer for two month now!...(ever since some burglar robbed me of my beautiful dell m170) I have been saving up money to buy a HEAVY desktop. Any inputs would greatly be appreciated.

well yur video card and perifs sound nice but what motherboard and ram do you have? Thats really what matters. The cooler is nice i have the 9500 and love it (47$ from newegg). What ram, speed, stock timings and voltage? what motherboard? give us some links. assuming you have the right stuff id say at stock vcore you should be able to hit a minimum of 400x8 (3.2) and that 400bus should go higher easily.

First thing, I want to know what is you're specs for you're system?

Second, you can OC passed 3.0 GHZ pretty easily on stock voltages but except you're you have to increase the voltage specified on you're RAM.
