I disabled speedstep and the temps i provided are with speedstep of. None of the cores go above 60 degrees when under full load. Thanks for your help though guys :).

There nothing else i can do is there to make sure everything is working in tip top condition?
 
Yes i'm not going to bother overclocking it yet. I already have some thermal compound i may try this tonight and see what changes i get.
 
I could do with an idiots guide though to start overclocking. I look at the guide and get slightly confused. So what would i need to change to try and get 3.0ghz.
