Ok guys, as you know christmas is around the corner.. and the gf and I arent spending that much this year...being that we are broke college kids.. so, i was wondering if anyone would be able to tell me if I am goin to screw myself by making this upgrade or not..

Athlon64 3700+ 754pin ClawHammer OEM http://www.laptops4me.com/product_info.php/products_id/9183
i currently have an Athlon 64 3000+ 754 Newcastle (overclocked from 2 to 2.5ghz).. I am not sure what is limiting my overclock though, (board or cpu). I am currently at 250x10, and i know that i start going unstable at 254x10. My mobo is an ABIT KV8 Pro..

all i want to know is what the chances are of still gettin a good overclock on this processor.. I have good cooling solutions..Dont want to get a useless xmas present... thanks guys
 
I really dont see a reason to spend that much money when you probably wont get much more than your getting now. Jmo of course :)
