In the simplest terms you are just going to raise your FBS (front side bus speed)

I know it's a lot more than that but that is the "basic" idea.

I'm not sure how much you know about your BIOS settings but you need to get your manual and read it and do it again if you need to. Every change you are going to need to make will come from in the BIOS . I'll give you a few links that should help.

This last guide is a actully for a differnt board but alot the settings will be the same so it should be help as well
