If your wanting to overclock as much as poss then I'd suggest changing the mobo to

Gigabyte GA_965P_DS3 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard £84.99
(£99.86)

if thats within your budget.

This is a fantastic board for overclocking especially with the GeIL RAM!

Also, 2Gb of the GeIL PC6400 would give you a sweet system and one that a lot of people on the forums seem to recomend (again if your budget permits).
