Processor & 6800 gt

What's a good cpu for a 6800gt? I have a 2.4, but am thinking it's not powerful enough for the needs of a 6800 gt. I want to stay Pentium for the time being and I can't afford a 3.4 right now so what will be the best bang for my buck do you think?

Overclock to 3.0 GHz or 3.2 GHz if you can.
