I guess really what im asking is will it last, how long, is it good, and am i getting the bang for my buck?? Even though 64bit tech isn't at its prime just yet i wan't to be able to switch over from 32 bit to 64 bit seamlessly, so i can play my HL2, and my Oblivion on something that will last and be upgradable in the future...

vista will support core 2 duo aswell coz they are 64bit. even though you dont want to overclock, get the second cpu i showed u, the E6700, it is cheaper than the fx and will outperform it, plus when u get advanced u can overclock it and overclocking is not a thing to worry about, just dont increase the Vcore and increase just the fsb, if its a unsuccessful OC, the system will just restart and defaults will be loaded.
plus the intel cpu's have got thermal throttling so if the processor reaches a certain temperature, the computer will lower the clock speed of the processor and tey to lower its temp, if it cant do that, it will just switch the computer off.
