Overclocking my E6300 - Basic OC?

[gam3r]

Is there a basic OC I can acheive with this CPU and the following specs?

Gigabyte DS4 965P - Latest BIOS F12
E6300 C2D
2GB GeiL currently at 5-5-5-15 (4:5 333MHz)

I don't really want to stress the system out, but it would be nice to be able to squeeze some more juice with little risk out...so if anyone could maybe provide me with some settings?

Thanks

Hey guys, so I did a slight OC yesterday...

I oced to 429x7 (~3GHz)
DIMM + 0.2V

Everything else set to normal. System seemed perfectly stable the whole day through all tasks such as gaming, movie etc..

Today I turn the PC on, and it just sits there in a cycle, turning on and off. It finally starts up and all the settings are back to default, everything running at stock.

Anyone know how I can tweak the oc so it sticks after reboot?

Thanks for the reply, appreciate it. Will give some of the stuff you said a try a bit later on.

It's puzzling actually, because when the DS4 came out, people with pretty much the same chip and motherboard used to sit pretty at 3GHz+ no problems...this was like 4 years ago!
