Hey guys-

I am currently building a SFF gaming rig. Thanks to some people on these boards I am thinking about getting the Q6600 (Quad Core, 2.4Ghz) The board that I will be pairing it to will be an AsusP5k-VM Micro ATX board, and the memory will be 4GB GSkill DDR2800.

So my simple question (maybe not so simple):

How do I overclock this processor? I have read on the boards that some people have truly overclocked this processor beyond it's specs. I am looking to get 3.0GHz (don't want to push it too much). The CPU cooler that I will be using is a Silverstone NT06 Lite (right beneath a 750WATT powersupply with a 120mm fan).

So what do I need to do? I know there are bios settings, but I don't know which ones.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
