    unless u want to buy good watercooling there is really not much point in overclocking, but if u wanted to spend lots on cooling then it could be done.

    cheak out this site, vapochill micros they look good but i havent had any experiance with them.

    Also look at investing a heat spreader for your memory that will make the system more stable nad may be albe to do what your hopering, but it could just not make a differance, every computer is differnet after alll.
