Overclocking and advanced BIOS options

I wanna overclock my CPU (Athlon 3500+ 939), you cann see the computer in my signature, it's the first one.
Do I need to touch the CPU voltage? or just raise the FSB? I need to lock the AGP or something?

Ok now for a few BIOS options:

1) Can I go higher then 2.75v on the memory? (I think it freezes because I use 2.75 now, but theoretically) what's the performance effect? and probably lower temp too?
2) Should I change the AGP voltage? there is no 'AUTO' voltage for the AGP in my BIOS, and it's set on 1.50v.
3) My AGP aperture is set on 128MB, I should change it to 256MB since I have a 256MB card right?

For the ones of you with a MSI Neo2 Platinum motherboard, there is that 'Manual' or 'Optimized' Performance settings, when it's on Manual where do I set stuff? and on the auto overclocking, there are all those levels 'sergent' 'colonel' Etc... What do you use?
And if you have this MOBO, maybe you ran into this problem and you can help me.

Gonna test which one of the settings I changed make my pc freeze.. maybe you can help here

Thanks.
