Kids Asus A7N8X processor combo suggestions

I have a quick question about which processor to get for this board.

I will be playing games, watching DVD's, some photoshop work, Bryce5, Poser4, stuff like that. I plan on novice type overclocking when I get my Mobo and processor. Which processor do you guys recommend for this set-up? I don't know what the ballpark limitations are with overclocking either. Is there a chart somewhere that would give realitively safe estimates?

The new 2500+ is starting to overclock rather nicely and is coming down in price also. Less than $100.

Although if price is an issue the 1700+ DLTC is the overclockin bang-for-the-buck King.

i think the 2600+ 333mhz is the best deal.
