thanx mite aswell get the one meg cache one and use the 14pound i save to get a better cpu cooler

something like Akasa AK-965 Low Noise CPU Cooler (Socket LGA775) looks like it can do the job

Good review here

But, think you'll need something 'beefier', like the Noctua NH-U12F, to get a better overclock.

Beefier = lower temps (higher oc) + low noise

Another vote for the E2160 here.
