New to Overclock.net

Hey guys I'm new to overclocking. I just barely bought and built my pc. I was wondering if anyone out there can help me overclock my pc. I don't want to OC it too much where it would be unstable. I just want like maybe a 3.2 or so. This is my motherboard and cpu I have.
ASUS P5N-E SLI 775 nVidia 650i http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131142 Intel quadcore q6600 Core2 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115017 Corsair ddr2 800 4gb ram http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145176 700watt psu http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817121025 reserator XT just currently cooling CPU atm. I'm a complete noobie, can someone walk me through and tell me what to change please? |

There's a link in my sig for OCing on this board, but it was written before the q6600 processors became common. Unfortunately, you've got a bad MB/CPU combo for OCing, as the P5N-E can't get your CPU anywhere near what it's capable of because of power management issues. You can try following my guide, but don't be surprised if you top out somewhere around 2.8 GHz.

@ Tribeca: your 6400 really eats up the voltage! I didn't even have to go that high for 3.6....

At this moment 12 people have achieved 3ghz with the quad on this board because of that guide. The only complications that will exist is if you use vista 64-bit and do not have an IDE disc drive. Enjoy your OC!!
