I,ve had a couple and there not that good of a overclocker. A 8750BE will wipe the floor with it. Plus you can even get a 9850 now for under 150 bucks.
There's no reason to get a 9550. Either get a 9850/9950 for a quad, or go with the 8750. Getting a low clocked quad like that isn't going to give you any performance benefits unless tomorrow everything goes quad-threaded.
My guess is the 9550 would overclock to 2.5, 2.6 at most.
