I searched a lot about overclocking a 3.2ghz ht prescott cpu to 4.4ghz. What cooling system can oc at 4.4ghz clock? I dont care how less or how much it costs for the cooling equipment.
What mobo is the best to use?

Water cool. Depends on what, you could use many things to create your own.
RogerASPIRE ATXB4KLW-AL Antec 400W
ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe
AMD 3700+ San Diego
Corsair 1GB 2x512
eVGA 6600GT
250GB Hard Drive
Sound Blaster Audigy
Windows XP HOME W/SP2

well, if you said cost doesn't matter, use Prometea. it cools off CPU to - 30C @ 200W dissipasion.
ECT Prometeia Mach II GT.
www.xoxide.com. look in CPU Cooling > Extreme Cooling section
it's "only" $949.99 ... :p
use Vapochill for your chipset.
i don't know for intel mobo,maybe 925 or 955 chip will do.
Abit AW8-MAX? Abit AA8XE Fatal1ty?
Athlon 64 2800+ @ 2.63 Ghz stock cooling.
DFI Lanparty UT NF3 250GB
512 MB PC 3200 V-gen 2-3-2-5.
Abit R9550XT-vGuru mod to 9600XT: 525Mhz-300Mhz

hey Rel, thats CHEAP jk!! I have found some nice cooling systems and they should work nice and I didn't expect price to be so expensive.
Black Ice Xtreme II Dual 120mm Radiator and I would also buy the tubes etc.

http://www.overclock.net/overclock.php?file=articles/dominator-pro.htmGreat prices and I bet I can oc around 4ghz.

haha, well, you said that cost dosn't count. so i give what i knew as the most expensive cooling system. LOL.
don't forget to cool off your chipset. it'll run hot for OC'ing
Athlon 64 2800+ @ 2.63 Ghz

you don't need a several hundred dollar cooling system to overclock. a water cooling system is reccommended but you certainly don't need one the costs that much.
Argue for your limitations and sure enough, they're yours.
