im ontario. You would have to spend more money on a better cooler thent he stock CPU fan if you were to overclock. I dont see a point in overclocking that CPU its already at 3.2GHz

you will also need a small pint of 2% milk. you need to dip the SATA chords in there (not the tips) before installing them. this will give them more heat resistance.

You don't need to overclock

E6750 at 2.66GHz is faster than 6400+ at 3.2GHz

Check the benchmarks
