For noticeable performance I think SSDs beat OCing by a long way. I mean OCing SBs would hardly get you 1-2 extra FPS in games whereas SSD beats HDD by a long way. Much faster. Only advantage I see in buying an OCable rig (other than for benchmarking) is that when the market launches faster CPUs you'll be able to match it up without buying a new CPU. Keep in mind though CPU performance is not just based on clock speed. Architecture of CPUs matter a lot. e.g AMD Phenom II X6 1100T 3.3 GHz is dominated by Intel i5 2500k 3.3 GHz.
