You'll only wreck your computer if you overclock badly. You just have to ask, over at Overclock.net. There was another forum you could go to, but I asked them a question one time, and almost all of them were yelling at me to look at guides to figure out exactly what I need to buy, so I'd never recommend them.
Do not buy AMD processors, you're paying more dollars per IPS. The motherboards are cheap because there is no generalized quality control, so most AMD motherboards are cost-downed pieces of junk, unless you get into the $100+ zone (USD, CAD is $140+). Unless you don't want to keep your computer for very long, DO NOT BUY CHEAP AMD PARTS!
Also, do not go for cheaper PSUs. I know that everyone is recommending that one 80+ white PSU by EVGA (not really a BAD PSU, but not a GOOD one, either), but you should never cheap out on the PSU. I'd recommend any PSU given outstanding (overall 8/10 or higher) marks by professional PSU reviewers like Jonnyguru or Kitguru('s power supply guys).
Just wait for Pentium Anniversary. Faster than that A10, overclockable, and cheap like a Pentium.
