How much can I overclock?

My system, it has an E6600 on stock cooling, and a water cooled x1950xtx: http://www.hardware.info/en-US/news/...eon_X1950_XTX/

I don't know how I managed to get it, but the company I bought it from (www.pcoption.co.uk) upgraded me to it from a normal one for free. Apparently its one of only 5 in the country or something. He might be fibbing though!

If you did it in little steps in the FSB and put the voltages up a bit then you could probably get it too 3.4 or 3.5 Ghz

You won't know until you try. Read up before you do try though.
