With the newer chips a Data Base of really good steppings have not been released as of yet so a garantee of really high O/Cs is never really there. Actually even if you have a really good stepping your system as a whole will decide what your total stable O/C would be. If you got the money then go for it but if your on a budget get the fastest chip you can & try to O/C it as high as it'll go.
