Been looking at these new Intel CPU's for awhile and I am also looking to upgrade to duel core. AMD doesn't look so appealing anymore and it seems like they lost a step in the CPU market. So I am looking for a good CPU/Mobo/Ram combo that can get me up and running on Intel for the first time ever. I will be overclocking, nothing too hard core but a mild overclock.
Here is the cpu I was looking at

Now, not knowing anything about Intel I have no idea what a good board is, I have around 150$ to spend on a motherboard, maybe a little more. Also I am going to need some advice on DDR2 memory since I have never touched the stuff. I want the memory to be able to overclock well, I have about 225$ to spend on memory.
