I'd like to do a moderate overclock on my e8400. From what I've read here 3.6 ghz is fairly easy to achieve.

My setup:

e8400 E0
Asus P5Q-E
Corsair Pc2-6400 (4x1gb)
Scythe Ninja? cooler

Everything is set to stock at the moment. Coretemp says 27/29c whilst browsing etc.

So, is it as simple as just whacking the FSB up to 400? Or do I have to change voltages as well? Can I leave the ram at stock or do I need to change that as well? I'm a bit confused because most of the discussion is on how to get overclocks of 4ghz or more, and I just want to keep it simple.


Thanks for any advice.
