Even if the multiplier goes that high (I don't think it does), the CPU will need a higher voltage to reach 3.2.

Well, with an AMD, what is easy varies quite a lot. All I can say is try it, if it doesn't work, raise the voltage.

Depends what the notches are, and what the CPU is, and even so, I wouldn't know the exact answer, I'd have to make a very broad guess.
What I will say, is that as long as you have a single 6-pin graphics card (i.e. anything up to HD4850 in performance, but not a G80 8800, or a 9800GTX/GTX+, or an HD2900), a 95W CPU can be overclocked considerably on a Corsair 400W without trouble. If you do have a 12-pin or 14-pin graphics card, I'd take it easy.

Sounds like you could use standard on/off switches from radioshack...just make sure you are switching the "ground" not the "12v"...just leave the 12v connected all the time. (Do not get switches with LEDs in them; they are not designed for switching ground.)
Also, many LED fans have the LEDs mounted so you can get at their leads. If so, you could probably wire the switch to the LED, so you could turn the LED off while leaving the fan on (or if you don't want the LED at all, you can just clip the leads and remove the LEDs)
Just remember...NEVER SWITCH 12V, 5V, or any other V in your PC; switch everything with ground.
