How high can I overclock this killer computer rig?

[uberloungedotcom]

I'm buying this hardware for my rig, how far do you think I can take the Core 2 Duo E6600 to?

- Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Conroe 2.4GHz LGA 775 Processor Model BX80557E6600 - Retail
- ABIT AW9D-MAX LGA 775 Intel 975X ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail
- OCZ Gold 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 900(PC2 7200) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model OCZ2G9002GK - Retail
- (2) X GIGABYTE GV-NX76T256D-RH GeForce 7600GT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Silent Pipe
- Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3320620AS (Perpendicular Recording Technology) 320GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM
- (2) Pioneer DL-DVD burners
- (1) M-Audio Delta 10/10 LT
- most likely will use a 400W PS. Do I need more?

Display:

Why spend all that money and buy a skimpy Psu? I'd go a little higher because of the sli'd 7600gt's and overclocked cpu. A good name brand 500 watt psu is becomming the standard now a days.

Why get 2 7800GTs in SLI when you can get an 8800GTX (or better yet, a 8900GTX or 8950GX2 in the next few weeks)?

for those asking about the 7600gt, he isint using them in sli he wants to run 4 monitors (for work not gaming) so he needs to cards with dual dvi. On air you will get anywhere between 3 and 4ghz, depending on your chip. I got an e6600 when they first came out and I am stuck at 3.4 on basically the highest end water (outside of a g7 or a chiller), so as always overclocking can be hit and miss.
