I would shoot for the 3000 since it is cheaper and it can pretty much OC about as good as the 3200+ I have the 3200+ @ 2.5GHz well a winnie though and well lots of people can take the 3000+ as far or even further.

if you can spend it, get a 3700+ SD.

What is your reasoning for this?

how about iWindows or Windows X(P) or Windows Tiger

windows YJGS (you're just got screwed)
windows Bill Gates Signature Edition
windows Emc^2 (makes it seem intelligent)
windows bluescreen (hey that sounds pretty cool)
windows LONGHORN (goddamnit! just keep it as longhorn!)
windows theman edition (hell yeah)
windows BFG9000

the san diego will overclock higher and has 1mg cache

however the 3000 should hit 2.6 which is more than enough for your 7800 (which needs at least 2.2)
