Go into BIOS, move up CPU multiplier, then boot into Windows, Prime for 10 mins or so, if it crashes then go back to BIOS and up the volts, if it's fine then up the CPU multiplier again. Keep doing this until you find an overclock you're happy with, then prime for a further 8 hours or so to ensure it's fully stable.

I'm not sure what the max voltage or max temps for the 3570K are though.

What CPU cooler do you have?

Just the standard cooler mate that come with the cpu.
