Ok, I'm new to overclocking here so bare with me.. I have my setup up and running as the following:

Antec 900
Core 2 Quad q6600 @ 2.4Ghz
Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme
ASUS Maximus Formula
OCZ ModXStream 900w PSU

I'm just wondering if any of you can advise me on the way forward when it comes to overclocking. Obviously I want to get the best stable speed from my cpu without producing too much heat but I'm unsure where to start :P

Anyone got this sort of rig and managed to get some high clock speeds?

Thanks,

Adam
 
Look at the top of this section, the threads at the top are referred to sticky as they are always at the top :)
 
^^ Part I of that guide is odd. He runs FSB at 300mhz, then puts the RAM at 720MHz. Whats wrong with 333/667, giving 1:1 ratio, 3Ghz clock?

So far (except changing/dsiabling various BIOS settings and ram voltage to 1.9), all i've doen to OC was change my FSB and RAM frequency to the above and it's stable as hell, 5 second job.
