Just wondering how far I'm able to OC my current CPU (Intel E5500 @ 2.8 GHz)
CPU Specs: http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=42800
Mobo Specs: http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=08c0CULpvP1ZM9kT
Multiplier: 14
FSB: 800 Mhz
Cooler: stock one atm but a decent cooler shouldn't cost more than 20 EUR I guess
so ehm.. where do I start :G?

if you stay with 333FSB
10x333 and than raise mp each time and test with linx and prime95 ( linx 30 runs mem all ) prime95 atleast 3h )
the max with 333FSB will be 14x333 4,6GHz
Also with 333FSB you should be fine with adjusting the ram multiplier since its a default fsb used by the E8xxx series and Q9xxx series.
And ofc raise cpu vcore and all that shit if its unstable during testing, just google.
And how far you can go, you should ask god, maybe he can predict the unpredictable.
