First of all a big hello to everyone, as this is my first post :D

These are my computer specs: E6850 cpu, Asus Striker 680i SLI mobo, 8800GTX, 2GB ram at 800mhz ( timings: 4-4-4-15 ), Soundblaster x-fi xtrememusic, and 2 750GB WD Raptors HD's.

The computer is fairly new, i have it for less than a month. The thing is that i want to overclock it, but i dont know excactly what to do with voltages. The stock voltage of E6850 is 1.200, as the motherboard reports, how much should i raise, if i push it, say, to 3.25ghz?

Thanks in advance :cool:

I'd suggest taking a look at the C2D OC guide. In general, start with stock volts, slowly up the FSB, and only increase the volts if you reach instability.
