You do notice Ghz in a processor doesn't mean its necesseraly better then others..
Like the Core 2 Duo E6700 has 2.6Ghz I believe, and it out performs the Pentium4 EE 3.67Ghz in everything! And core 2 duo has a whole ghz left! I mean, of course you can overclock it that high, and you will have a cool-kick ass pc.
I recommend what I just got..
E6600
2GB Ram Croshair XMS Gaming Series
150GB Raptor X SATA (16MB Cache, 10K RPM) This is a bit pricy, but its the fastest type of HDD around. (Yeah, faster then SCSI, afaik..)
I also just got a 7950GT, very nice! $300 as well..
All this should come to around $1200 (You can always downgrade your HDD...)
