people overclock because they can, not like anyone keeps a cpu for more than 2 years these days... besides that whole eletromigration problem has never been proven. so as long as the cpu can run stable when overclocked it should last you until it's obsolete.

i would invest in a good monitor or LCD since those stay with you for much longer and you stare at it a lot.

 

You can get DVD recorders for $50 and up now:
