why do you want to do that?

increase your fsb with 3 everytime then restart and do a stability test. If it fails add some vcore and voila.

your comment makes no sense. He should first do some research because he clearly didn't do any. If he doesn't know what Fsb or vcore is then its useless to help him.

Watercooling will only make a difference in hot weather/humidity. Just go to overclock3d.net - say Youngie1337 sent you, they'll give you exact bios changes.

well there are some tools you can google, which do stresstests and also allow you control over the clock...
so what you usually do is increasing the clock by really small steps and do stresstests to check for stability of your system.
there are good tutorials about that, shouldnt be a prob to google it.
