1600 is most likely a MAX but I'm not sure your cooling could handle it.
If you cant get into windows at your current fsb, then increase the vcore by 1 increment at a time by pressing the + key and reboot. If you get into windows, increase your fsb some more and restart this process untill you get into windows with temps at around 55degC at full load! (full load matters a LOT)
It is a very time consuming task

im tempted to give this a go on my new i7 setup but i have 2 main concerns. one being my poop gc and the other being the fact i use a fanless heatsink and it ides around 35-41 (generally depending on if i have the door open or closed for an extended period of time so the heat escapes the room)

i've been looking at i7s recently and overclocking them. apparently they clock up to 4 GHz nicely but you need a top cpu cooler. overclockers do some overclocked bundles for you: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BU-030-OE&groupid=43&catid=339&subcat=1333 take a look at the monster it comes with.

For anyone who has an i7 gigabyte provide an in depth guide to overclocking it to 4Ghz. http://images.tweaktown.com/imagebank/Core%20i7%20920%20oc%204G%202008.12.12_(ENG).pdf

You have a 9600 right?
I wouldnt oc yet.. you wont see any benefit at all in games.. you will outside that but even then it depends what tasks you're doing! stick with stock clocks for now.. and when it comes to the gpu upgrade, look at fans for your cooler (you can tie a fan to any cpu cooler to increase airflow Smiley
Most i7 CPUs will clock to 4-4.5Ghsz easily but you have to watch your temps

so far i'm at 3ghz from 2.66 with a FSB of 1493 and temps around 37 full load. if i'm trying to get around the 60 mark then i'm *guessing* i can get quite a bit more out of the CPU but i'm concerned that going to that level will really be pushing it too much?

haven't run the test yet, but i've been playing arma 2 which uses near enough 100% of both cores so that'll do for the moment!
What is your ram at atm?

should i just keep going with upping my FSB & vcore?

Playing with the fsb adjusts the cpu and ram Smiley
