I have a brand new 3.0 ghz processor on a P4C800 Deluxe asus with 2xCORSAIR 512MB PC3200 PC400 DDR 2x120gb SATA150 seagates in raid 0 with 256MB Radeon. I was wondering how far I could take the processor and radeon before I need to get performance heatsinks or specialized coolers of some sort. Anyone know? Sorry for the n00b type question, but I've been reading a ton on this overclocking and I'm looking to experiment for the first time.

I realize overclocking isnt set but what are the estimates on the max without upgrading other parts
