I am building a new system to replace my Dual MP1600+. I am getting one of the new P4's with the 533mhz bus. I already have my two 512mb Corsiar XMS-3200 memory running at DDR400. I am not sure what motherboard to get or which chip to get. I am a hard core programmer looking to overclock my system. I most likely will get a koolance pc2-c water cooled case, so cooling won't be an issue. I was looking at a P4 2.26ghz or the 2.4. But I definately want to get up to 2.7-3.0ghz if I can. Any/all help would be much appreciated.

It looks like cash isn't too much of an issue for you, so I would say get the Asus P4B533-V (i845G) motherboard. I second the vote for teh 2.26B.
