I just ordered these parts:
Dynatron G950 CPU Cooler

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cooler-Master-RR-H101-22FK-RA-C... hexa

FX-6300

http://www.ebay.com/itm/AMD-FX-6300-Black-Edition-3-5-G...

Asus M5A97 LE R2

http://www.ebay.com/itm/ASUS-M5A97-LE-R2-0-AM3-AMD-970-...

I have 4 sticks Kingston pc3 ddr3 12800 ( I think but its not 10600 its faster)
2 4gb and 2 2gb

GPU is radeon hd 4870 x2
PSU is Thermaltake 550 watt
Antec 900 case
what can I expect to see in OC speeds that are day to day stable?
Also what would be a good program to use or what are some BIOS settings I can start with? Im not new to OC but am still inexperienced and DO NOT wanna burn up or damage my new setup. Thanks for the help in advance!

The cooler you linked to is not the one you mentioned.
If you are planning to cool on air you should have gotten the hyper 212 evo cooler for moderate overclocks or the Noctua nh-d14 for extreme overclocks. I think the highest stable overclock you can achieve on this chip is 4.5-4.79 depending on your luck.

The 'LE' version of the M5A97 is not the highest of flyers ... especially a used one that may have been subjected to a little abuse :)
