You should be able to hit 3.8-4.0ghz easily with WC.

well im doing 3.8ghz on air with a i7 860 so with a i5 750 and water. 4-4.2ghz, really depends on the speed of the ram though.

OCZ3OB1600LV4GK is the ram i have got any ideas how good it is

They're okay, they'll let you get to at least 4.2GHz (200x21, 9-9-9-24) which is getting near the limit of most i5s I've seen. Maybe a bit beyond that, though it's impossible to know for sure. Most likely on water, that memory is going to limit how far you can go and you'd have to loosen your timings to get much past 200 bclk, which will hurt system performance a bit.
