Default Ultra-Budget Build

I'm going crazy. I've been scouring Newegg for probably 4 hours trying to get this build together, but I think I'm just retarded, because I know there are parts for the specs I want. Would someone please help me?

I'm looking to build an ultra-budget PC. I've got $415 spending limit and already have a Case, PSU (430W), Keyboard, Mouse, and Monitor. I'm looking for about 2GB of DDR2 800MHz RAM, an Intel Core 2 Duo E6750, and probably about a 160GB Hard Drive. As far as the motherboard goes, I would like some pretty decent overclocking features. Onboard Video is fine for me, because I don't do hardly any gaming at all.

Could someone build me a PC with these specs? I'm having major issues finding all these parts for under $415. Help please!!

Very difficult with a budget like that. Why don't you get something like an E6550 or even the E6320 and OC it?

Well, the E6550 is only $20 difference and then the E6320 is only a $10 difference. I just figured that I might as well go with the best I could in my price range and then overclock that.

Don't get E4300 or E4400, because you can get E4500 for similar price or sometimes cheaper
