Under $100??? Impossible, even seperately. If you want good OCing quality you'll hafta spend a little more then that, come on now. Check out my setup, it's not too expensive nowadays. Check out www.pricewatch.com for the lowest prices.
If you buy some dirt cheap low end motherboard and a $30 Duron you might be able to come in under $125 with shipping. But its unlikely such a cheap motherboard will have any overclocking features at all.

Bottom line is, if you really want a descent system, you'll have to shell out the dough. Don't even waste your time looking for stuff under 100 bucks. sorry to burst your bubble.

ii would be better of saving up
because if u get good stuff it will last u and u will be overclock batter
but i would say just save up some more money and get it later on

I think the only way of getting what you want for the price would be to get a B-grade earlier generation mobo from a store - I don't know about the US, but overclockers.co.uk in the UK sometimes have B-grade KT7s or A7Vs for about 60 quid. However, being B-grade they don't come with cables and/or manuals and/or drivers, and as they're KT133 boards there wouldn't be much point anyway. You want KT133 now, or DDR like AMD760. Like Phiber and the others say, save up and wait - it's just not gonna happen for $100 I'm afraid.
