just curious as I am an overlcocking noob, what kind of OC I could get with stock HS/fan, 2 gig of G-skill ddr2.. not looking for anything extreme, just want a little extra power without changing too many settings like voltages and such.. any help appreciated. thanks.

I'd say you should be able to hit 3.6 without issue, with only a few minor bumps in voltage. I've got an E8400 in my DS3L running @ 3.8 with 1.28v, but I'm also using a TR Ultra-120.
