E4300 & Gigabyte GA-965P-DQ6

[Vlip]

Hi, I am new to overclocking and have no idea where to start. I have just purchased the following:

C2D E4300
Gigabyte GA-965P-DQ6
2X1GB Corsair XMS2
Saphire X1950XT 256MB
Stock cooler (for now)
Antec Sonata II case with 450W psu

I would like to get to 3.0 to 3.3 GHz.

Has anyone out there got some suggestions of where I could start? Or, better yet if anyone has a similar system and has successfully overclocked, could they share what settings they are using?

Thanks!
