Why not buy a Mobile from Newegg ? Depending on the kind of
motherboard you've got, they can function as a 3200+ for you.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103401 ($85)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103436 ($97)

These are flexible enough, that you can get 2200MHz from them
whether the FSB is FSB266 or FSB400. The multiplier is unlocked.
My A7N8X-E made using the $97 one pretty easy. (The $85 one
might, on average, need a bit more Vcore.) No "wire tricks"
were needed on the A7N8X-E, as my multiplier was less than 12.5.
Some motherboards have lousy multiplier support, or a crappy BIOS,
so you'll need to do some research with respect to your motherboard
type.

I use 200x11 = 2200MHz, Vcore set to 1.65V, which equals 3200+.
It will clock higher, but the performance gain is not worth the
bother. At 2200MHz, it is nice and stable.
