I want some suggestion about the most overclockable and not really expensive AMD CPU and Mobo and extra cooling...
Are those Thunderbirds with 233FSB (i think) good?
Could anyone help me?

Those Thunderbirds with the 233mhz FSB don't exist, it's either 200 or 266. Now though it's all 266 pretty much. And as for what to get it all depends on what you want a computer for and more importantly that green stuff with dead presidents on it! How much are you willing to spend? I'd also suggest going to the mainpage and reading the overclocking for newbies thing. It's really helpful.

I'd say a 1.2-1.4 Athlon with an Epox 8K7A, and some quality DDR ram.
