I haven't done any overclocking since the 775 days and it's much different now.

Any good step-by-step guides that make it REALLY clear for those of us who don't know all the new stuff?

so, in 775 processors, the multi was fixed and you raised the fsb.
in a k series processor, you raise the multi and generally leave the bclock (analogous to the fsb) alone.
also, and this will probably be controversial, turn off turbo boost.

The thing that really intimidates me atm is actually overclocking the new graphics cards. They seem to change clockspeeds all the time depending on factors you can't control.

I'd like to think mine is fairly easy and straight forward, though I guess you'll be the judge of that.

It's in my sig, haven't updated it for awhile but it has some good links to other more in-depth and well written guides as well.
