We have an overclocking guide here somewhere. Should be the same as any other processor, just raise the FSB. I've got my 6400 up to 3.0 on stock voltage so you should be able to do around the same.

Hi Razza. Welcome to CJ.

Have a read of this.

It's not a guide as such (it was written as a reply in a post) but you should find it useful.

Also, is your pc a home build or did you purchase ready-to-go? I ask because some manufacturers of pc's lock out the overclocking features in a mobo's bios.

You could of course use software to oc your rig but I wouldn't recommend it as it's not as exacting as doing it through your bios because you dont' have total control over the settings.
