This is what i have bought for around £900. I am waiting to receive it so cant test the setup yet.. i think i have picked a decent overclocking system, my main question was anyone have an idea about the Ram : i know its quality and fast but i've recently heard issues about changing the fsb on the ram : with the 2500 could i for example have a 14x 200 or 13x 200 for example to have a basic fsb with a clock speed of 2.6 - 2.8 and just up the cpu voltage ?? any help on overclocking info on hardware if i have made ok choice would be appreciated

thanks

The setup you are proposing, 14x 200 or 13x 200 would be running the ram at it's regular speed. 200 DDR = 400. The cpu would be overclocked but the ram would not be. This shouldn't require additional voltage for the ram. If you were to go to 13 x 210 it might require additional voltage. This would be running the ram at 420.
BTW that looks like an A#1 setup.
