Help with OC! I'm new!

I'm planning to overclock my CPU but first I have a few questions.
Conf:
AMD XP2100+ T-bred B dut3c. Default vcore is 1,6.
Temp @2100Mhz is 39 C
Spire Falcon Rock II
NF7-S rev2.0
2x256 DDR PC3200 Twinmos
DVD-Rom
CD-RW
Seagate 80 GB S-ATA
FDD
1 case fan
ATI RADEON 9000

I have Codegen case with 300W PSU and I think that is not enough for
components I have + stable overclock. Or maybe it is?

There are some voltages readed in BIOS. Are they OK?
Vcc voltage (+2,5V) - 2,65V
I/O voltage (+3,3V) - 3,36V
+5V - 5,16V
+12V - 12,16V~12,22V
-12V - -12,28V
-5v - -5,35V
3,3V - 3,66V

My graphic card is agp 4x. Would I get some better OC results if
I buy some card with agp 8x(maybe Ati 9600 XT)?
What is the max voltage for CPU and RAM?
Thanks for the answers!

nice voltage rails, except for the fluctuating 12V rail

CPU: don't exceed 1.9 volts, but you'll get problems with the CPU temperature when raising the CPU vcore
RAM: 2.9

nope. IMO the PSU does fine right now for overclocking, but I'm pretty sure it won't handle powerful video cards and a high Vcore. with your setup you can try to overclock as much as you want, it's okay. but if you're going to squeeze every single Mhz out of it, and if you want a better video card then you'll need a better PSU
