    There is a lot to learn, so take it slow.
    OC is all about cooling - so read up on how to install bigger fans, get good case air flow, and lastly about really good heatsinks. Also be sure you do not keep critical data on your computer.
    Only then attempt to OC.

    There are many sites dedicated to OC, so you can start at one of those. There are no "magic numbers" on what your system will do. All you can do is build, test, fix, and test some more.

    is a start.

    I am really trying to help here, but want you to be cautious.
