Default Which CPU should I buy?

My parents are letting me upgrade for xmas, but we're kinda splitting what parts....so I let them pay for the most expensive one... the CPU. OK, I'm going to get myself a Chaintech 7NJS mobo, so it will unlock tbreds automatically. My two choices for a CPU are the 2400+ and the 2600+ 333 ($110 more than the 2400+). Either one will be cooled with an SK-7 heatsink.

Which one should I get? I'll probably overclock/fiddle with the FSB anyways, so should I just save $110 for other things (case mods...hehe) and just push the 2400's FSB to 166 and maybe raise the multiplier a tad to make it into a 2600+ 333?
