you should be able to push a little more assuming that board is better than the crap GB pushed out to begin with for AM2+

If you got a 9950BE then just up the multiplier until it gets unstable and raise the voltage. Don't go past 1.5v tho.

What is a good Phenom II bored. I Kind of want to get a Phenom II but I am not sure what bored to get. They have some pretty sweet combo's on newegg. Are any of those any good?

These look like the best combo's to me

Don't worry about the SB600, Phenom II's got what the SB600's were missing built in.

The only thing I am worried about with that Biostar bored is no mosfet cooling.

I know frozen CPU has some. They are a good trader too. Look at the ThermalRight ones, they are a bit pricey tho..

If I spent enough for the DFI 790GX I could buy a Q9550 for the same price, which beets the PII.
