That processor can easily hit 3Ghz, thats what I have mine on as my daily overclock, I've had it up to 3.9 without raising voltages. Also, you may want to consider the 640MB GTS if your going to be running games and stuff at a higher resolution.
get the 640mb card
320 is bad
Haha, no you didn't. You probably just have it set to automatically select the voltage.
I've also heard the current E6600's aren't so good. The E6750 sounds alright.
Could someone explain this stepping? I've heard it mentioned somewhere else too, but couldn't make much sense of it... Is there any way of finding out what a chip has before you buy it?
Maybe, maybe not. Depends on the seller I think...
And about the RAM, you'll want at least DDR2-1000, higher if you want to overclock well.

You may wonder why I've dropped the video card at the moment. Well thats because I don't know wheather I should get a 8000 series card yet.
Opinions? I could probably buy a 7000 series for much cheaper, wait until revisioned 8000 series cards come out, and then buy it. What do you think?
