i have an abit35 pro xe intel q6700 4gb of kingston hyper x 1066 corsair hydro h50 radeon hd4870 i have never overclocked before and would like to give it a try could anyone help me with settings on how to overclock my pc
 
i would have thought that a q6700 would be good for 3.2 to 3.4ghz on a h50 but why not start off with a nice little 3ghz oc and see how the temps go.
boot into bios and change the fsb to 333 and multi to 9x, set the dram freq to 1066, all thats left then is the cpu voltage, should be ok on stock but for the life of me cant remember what it is, i think its 1.2250, if all is ok and stable my next goal would be 3.2 so fsb 400 and multi x8, i would also knock the dram freq down to 800 to run at a 1.1 ratio, then slowly up the cpu voltage a little bit at a time untill its stable booting into windows and can run prime for a few hrs, also download core temp to keep an eye on temps when testing
