Yes, you can overclock your FSB. Your motherboard actually is one of the better ones out there for overclocking because it unlocks the multiplier as well as the FSB. If you were to overclock, the ddr3200 is better since it can go up to a fsb of 400 before it gets overclocked. That means you wouldnt need to mess with the voltages as you surpass the speed ratings. The barton cpu is also a good overclocker and the watercooling is a definate plus.
Overclocking is a risky thing though. Definatley read up on it a bit before you start and lurk on some of the overclocking forums. You will definately learn a bit about the architecture of your pc if you do. Baby steps is the way to move and with your mobo, a combo of bumpning up the fsb and the multiplier is the way to go, but I am not familiar with the specifics.
