Robust Graphics I have set to Fast
CPU Clock Ratio at 9x (in your photo of CPU-Z show it @ 6x)
CPU Host Clock Control Enabled
CPU Host Freq (Mhz) set it at 333 to get a 3.0GHz overclock
C.I.A.2 at Disabled This is important because it will down clock CPU if it is enabled. It is a power saving function that messes with OC.

Pic #2 - Still in (M.I.T.) section
You don't have to set your setting exactly like this because you aren't overclock as much. I added this to give you an idea.
(You will want to Enable Load-Line Calibration)
You may find if you are not stable that you will have to increase CPU Vcore. 2.5 maybe OK. Increase slowly if you have crashes.
I had everything else before a Bios update set to normal. I would not use Auto in this section it tends to over volt things. I also had to increase my DRAM Voltage to get RAM stable it is rated up to 2.3Volts. Looking at your RAM I would stay at 1.8V unless it is not stable a 1000MHz and only increase slightly.

Pic #3- This is in Advance Bios Features.
It is really important when overclocking to make sure the 3 functions grouped together with CPU are all disabled.
CPU Enhanced Halt (C1E) - disabled
CPU Thermal Monitor 2(TM2) - disabled
CPU EIST Function - disabled
(These are tied to C.I.A.2 in MB intelligent Tweaker(M.I.T.) which will down clock CPU for power savings but mess with OC)

Pic #4 - This is in System Health
I set my CPU warning Temp at 70C which just under max thermal for Q6600 which is rated @ 75C I believe. In theory it will shut down system if CPU temp gets dangerous. I disable everything else. Note: Disabling CPU Smart Fan will make CPU fan spin at Max RPM's which is what you want using a stock cooler. It will make sure you have maximum cooling.

Note: if you have problems with being able to reboot use clear CMOS function on MB (last Pic) to reset everything and try again. Make sure computer power is turned off. I use a flat head screwdriver and touch both pins and count for 30seconds. If for some reason that doesn't work you can take out the battery.

You have a very nice computer set up. The only thing I found questionable about your computer is your power supply. It is not highly rated. You should consider getting a better brand PSU if you can find one in India. Here is a list I found.

Also a good CPU temp monitoring program to have when OCing if you don't have it is CoreTemp.

CPU idle temp is 50 from Everest ultimate
Below i ran stability test and temp I am sending

Does the Nvidia based card have to be PCI Express ?

I forgot about to snap it........
which temp i have to trust Everest Vs Core Temp.
Are you saying that My power Supply is Fine for Another GPU 8800GTS 512.
I am a little bit weak in understanding things in English.

They did have Ageia PCI cards that ran PhysX before integrating it into GPU cards. This is a good question. If you have an older PCI card laying around, you could try it.
