Why not just go with the 7600 and then wait till DX10 cards come out. No sense on wasting your money on a good card while new ones are coming out really soon
That is EXACTLY what I did for this same reason...

But how overclockable is the question, conroes generally can reach over 3GHZ.

C2D indeed
Also GPU card prices will be dropping in November big time, not only with dx10 on the verge of coming out but Christmas shopping season as well.

If you don't know what you're doing when it comes to building your own system, have someone else do it. If you want to learn, glue your face to nerdy tech sites (specifically watch for "build-of-the-month" configurations), and read this book:

getting it right now, hope its good.

Mushkin is better still, but i agree G.Skill is closest to it at a better cost.  With only a little higher cas.

Man i just noticed ur system, VERY nice...im a ATI guy but man those 7950s are kicking ass.  I wish i woulda known about the C2D before i bought my X2, but then again i had to buy my son a gaming system at the same time so i prob wouldnt have had enough $$$
