What do you mean "best for overclocking"? The majority of the asus, abit and gigabyte skt478 865 or 875 boards come with suitable overclocking options, it just depends how heavy your into overclocking. Without sounding rude, if you were really into the techy ram latency, volt modding side of overclocking then you wouldn't be asking this question. Also, your contradicting yourself (or im getting confused) a 1.7 celeron isn't a northwood cpu. I have no experience o/c ing celerons sorry but northwoods are great.
Post back some clearer questions and i'll be happy to help

And before you ask again, the answer to "how fast will it go" is "it depends on the chip, you don't know till you try".

Overclocking your CPU without overclocking your RAM as well will do you little good. The CPU already handles data faster than
RAM can. Probably will cause more problems than good.

Upping the FSB will increase the cpu and ram "speed" together. If you don't have quality ram though, that could cause a bottleneck at a lower speed than the cpu could otherwise run. Quality ram is a must for real OC'ing.

I've had really good luck with the Asus motherboards, never had any problems doing anything with them

DFI is the best motherboard to overclock with, in my opinion.
