Remember, Google is your friend. There isn't a 'one size fits all' solution with overclocking- you really need to understand what you are doing and what your potential limitations are. Not every CPU clocks the same; it is also highly dependent on hardware such as PSU, motherboard and RAM. Even if someone that owns the exact same hardware you do, does not mean you each can overclock exactly the same with the same settings.
