Overclocking your CPU might be fine for a home machine, but for a
production system, especially one where you are going to be doing
CPU-intensive calculations, and you are going to want accurate results,
it is a very bad idea.

Seems a bit on the expensive side.
The BP6 can be bought for about $300, and you can buy 2 Celeron 400A's for
about $150 each.
