how far can you overclock a e6400.
system specs =
intel c2d e6400
crucial ddr6400 2x 1gb cl5
965p-ds3 rev3.33 F11 bios
liquid cooling (only the cpu)
ati x1650pro
500w seasonic psu
2x 300gb hdd's in raid0 config

i can get it to run at 3.28Ghz with a multiplier of x8 and a fsb of 410, anything higher than that and the pc won't post. v-core 1.4, ddr-2.1, fsb +0.1, mhc + 0.1, pci-e + 0.1, ram at 1:1 ratio cl6.6.6.18.
Is the motherboard the limiting factor or is that just the maximum speed for that processor.

This is a very brief and rather stupid question. There are SO many variables. It depends on your mobo, memory to some extent, and your CPU, though it is possible to go into more detail.
