Hi ya'll.

I thought OC'ing these days would be easier, but I'm having a hard time starting out.. I thought there'd be some step-by-step guides for this MB/CPU combo, but I'm totally failing in my GOOGLE and FORUM searches.

Anyone have a good step-by-step guide, or some advice in general?

My specs:

E2160 CPU
Artic Cooler freezer 7 pro
GA-P35-DS3L
2x2GB G.Skill DDR2 800, 5-5-5-15 - 1.8-1.9v
PCIe 8800 GT

Been running the PC at stock speeds for over a year, with the intention of OCing "later".... later is now. Just keep finding conflicting recommendations all over the place......

I'd really just like to hit 2.8MHz with this thing, maybe 3.0MHz, I've heard this isn't hard, right? :( I feel like an idiot!

Thanks again for all the help, this is a rig I put together myself with the advice of everyone here, was a good build!!
