now i dont suppose any of you know much on overclocking? or should i make a new thread?
I 'think' all you would initially need to try is to just change the 'FSB' in the bios, and of course watch the temps. However, I strongly recommend you make a thread in here :

about the cm690 ii
what what be best for me here
this
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BU-004-CM
then get a sidewindow and something decent for about £60
or the normal cm 690 ii lite with sidewindow or maybe the advanced if they are in stock and this psu
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-117-AN&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=1088 and not have much money left
which do you think would be the better option.
(decided to steer away from the coolermaster psu i came to my senses)

Go for the second option.
Although the side window is only a good thing if you're good/neat with your cables otherwise you get to see your mess daily!!

hmm im not sure tho because i could spend the extra money on something like a sound card and also i am very neat with cables so hiding them wouldn't be a problem so i wouldn't mind a non modular psu but a modular would have cause be better and i do like the connections on the coolermaster gx 750 more ..... hmmm not sure
It's entirely up to you but I personally have found that on board audio is actually very good. I must admit that my five year old creative intrigue speakers are dated and probably do bottleneck the X-fi Forte sound card somewhat, but even so they are still good quality speakers. I find the sound very good indeed. However, when I upgraded my sound card I was left a little disappointed. In fact very recently I took it out and relied on my on board audio for a few weeks, I honestly couldn't tell much difference.
So the only conclusion I can draw is that a new set of speakers in my case would probably be the solution and would blow me away, even though what I already have is imo very good.
