Can you all help me. I'm getting a koolance case (my first time with water cooling) and i'm either getting the 1600+, 1700+, 1800+, or 1900+. Which of these would i be able to overclock to most? I know it depends on each chip, but lets say on average. I really want to know what would give me the best Overclocking performance/cost ratio. Any tips would be great! Thanks.

p.s. Lets say i can OC each of them exactly 200mhz... then i'd probably go with the 1900... but if i can OC the 1600+ to say a 2000+ and the 1700+ to like a 2100+ and the 1800+ to a 2100 again, and the 1900 to 2200+, then the best would probably be the 1600... that's what i'm looking for.

i would have to say either the 1500+ or 1600+ are the best overclockers out of the group the higher end xps seem to be nearing the limits of the palimino core i have heard

Really? Doesn't the Palomino core go all the way to 2ghz or about 2500+?
