Ok some of you might know I'm building a budget rig soon, but I may have to wait awhile so I might just get the orange box now. My current peice of crap :P Has a P4 at 3.4ghz (no overclocking though), a 6600 vanilla and 1gb of ram. How will this run TF2 and Portal at 1280x1024?

It'll run portal just fine. As for TF2, you'll have to lower the res, and turn detail down.

What shold I OC it too? I have riva tuner, but I just tried for the first time to OC it, but I'm not sure if I did it right and I didn't see any difference in performance (yet I barely Oc'ed at all).
