if i get pc150 ram, can i.....
overclock it to 150MHz? like right now i have my 1.4gigger at 1.6GHz and i didnt up my ram (ram is at 133Mhz)...and if i got pc150 ram modules would i be able to overclock it even higher?
like right now im using the 12x multiplier, so its 12x133=1600 (rounded off) and if i get pc150 ram would i be able to get 1800MHz? because 12x150=1800 resulting in 1.8GHz???
can someone please clarify this?

you should also consider upgrading the cooling on your northbridge if you plan on seriously overclocking your ram
What's the most expensive purchase you've made on your miles/reward credit card? Starwood Preferred Guest Credit Card Application
like what kind of fan should i get to kool the north bridge down? will this be good enough:http://www.nexfan.com/23/117.htm?924? its an evervool blue orb, and also how is it going to fit in my kt7a mobo?
or
what fans w/ links do you recommend me to get in order to cool the north bridge?

150mhz is possible. The RAM can get to that speed, it just depends if your motherboard can keep up with it. Like my motherboard, a Abit KT7E, can only get to 140mhz, with PC150 RAM
the BLORB fan would be decent for the Northbridge, certainly better than stock cooling.
You may want to get some RAM sinks as well, to keep the RAM cool, though I dont know if that really affects OC'ing that much.
what cooler is on your processor now?

the blorb...
when i first changed the hsf on my v3 i put on a GlobalWin FA420 then when the blorbs were the big thing i switched over to the blorb.
the GlobalWin FA420 was marginally better, i would put it back on but i used AC adhesive.

has the FA420 and BLORB you may want to check out the Wingfin Vid-Cooler kit he has also. even the Zalman Chipset Cooler Kit, ive heard mixed comments about it but i figure if you put a 40mm fan on, it would rock.
2cooltek used to have copper bases but seem to have discontinued them, shucks.
