How much should I overclock my i7-2600k and how

[Smeash]

Hello guys. I have never done OC before so this will be my first hopefully with your help.
I don't know how I can OC and what should I know first to OC.

PC specs:

i7-2600k
MSI lightning HD 6970
16 gb ram crossair
CPU Cooler: Thermaltake Contac 29 BP
Gigabyte Z68AP- D3
Corsair CMPSU- 650TX V2 650W, ATX2. 3
Cooltek Timaios, ATX, Midi Tower, black

Personally I haven't had a SandyBridge CPU and never needed to work with one. But I found a guide that seems to be pretty extensive and good enough for your purposes.
