ok guys this is my first time overclocking anything i been building pc for 4 years but this is the first time i have had the money to get some desent parts
i wanna get a good system but stable

XFX 750i motherboard
gtx 250 1gb ddr3
intel dual core 2.20ghz e4500
750watt psu
corsair ddr2 800mhz 4gb's 2 sticks

i am using the bio's on the board to OC my avalible adjustments are.

FSB clock
memory clock
cpu ratio
cpu voltage (max = .3000v)
memory voltage (max = 2.50v)
vtt fsb voltage max = 1.50v)
nb voltage (max = 1.51v)
sb core power(max = 1.60v)

if someone could give me some good start settings and some good settings that would be great maybe even a quick guide or something i have been reading alot of post and other things but just not making alot of sence outta it.

Thanks all

You could try:

FSB clock 1066 (will put you at 2.92Ghz).
Memory clock - set it to unlinked, then set it to 800mhz.
CPU voltage - around 1.325v should be enough. I'm not sure if you can directly select the voltage or not.
Memory voltage - look at the Corsair specs, then set the right voltage.

NB, FSB, SB voltage - keep all of it at stock voltage, as you aren't really pushing the board at 1066FSB.

well last night i was playing around abit and this is what i got.

cpuv= .0250
RAmV= 1.900
FSB = 1000

and that got me to this via cpuz

corev = 1.304
bus = 250
FSB = 1000

Core clock = 2.750

Alright, it looks like you got the basics. Did you test for stability and temperature?

i use everest and playied like a hour a cod4 last night and temp stayed below 45c at idle it is like 26-33c

one thing i have to ask is about the CPU voltage. cause you guys keep giving me numbers like 1.32v but in the bios my options are like .0375 what am i multiplying that by to get the real voltage

now for the settings you had

Bio's
CPUv - .0375
RAMv- 1.90
FSB - 1066

Readings from CPUz

Corev - 1.336
bus - 266.6
FSB - 1066

CPu Speed 2.933
