I have a gig (2 x CMX512-3200LL) of Corsair DDR400, 2-3-2-6. I have been mostly happy with this ram although i think its one of the main reasons i can't push my cpu harder. I am interested in upgrading to Dual Channel DDR.
To give you guys a quick idea at what I'm looking at:

As you can see, the machine itself is pretty sexy but its just screaming to be overclocked. With my ram at 2-3-2-6, however, I have a very hard time increasing the cpu/ram/video ratio. Hence, me seeking advice from the lords of overclocking.
Here's what I need from you fine folks:
--Would the upgrade actually make a difference...in anything?
--What are the top choices for Dual Channel DDR400? Right now, I'm assuming Corsair XMS. I'm interested in 2x512. Money isn't a huge issue.
--Would the upgrade let me push my cpu harder?
*note: DDR2 is not an option right now. I am strickly looking at Dual Channel DDR400.
Thanks In advance to all that reply:
