Overclocking a P4 2.4c

Alright, today i'm going to buy a P4 2.4c with a Asus P4P800-E and a pair of 512mb HyperX 3500 Kingston memory.

I hear this CPU can be overcloked with ease to at least 3.0Ghz, is this true ?!?

I beleive all i have to do is set the CPU as if it was a P4 3.0, with respective voltage, bus speed and multiplier, correct ?!?

I never been too keen to overclocking, i generally don't like to take risks, but if it's as easy to overclock this CPU with minimun problems as i've been told i might try it...
 
All you really have to do is bump up the FSB speed to raise the CPU speed. Keep in mind you will have to make sure your memory can handle the advanced FSB speed and you may need to bump up the CPU voltage a little bit. My 2.4C/Abit IC7-Max3/Geil 3500 does 3.12Ghz with memory set to 5:4 and 1.675v to the CPU.
