Take a look at this guide http://www.overclock...i7-920-4-a.html
Just know all i7's do not get to 4gig, thats a large speed increase.
good luck hope this helps

How high are you getting stable and what are the over clocked load temps ?

I didn't try to overclock to anything yet, I can't find the multiplier settings, I was following the x-bit lab guide but they said to lock the multiplier to 20x (Default setting) but i can't find how to do that???!!!

Everything to overclock is in your BIOs under the A.I. tweaker tab.

I recommend you go slow and read a lot of information first.

Change CPU setting from Auto to Manual. Keep HT on for 21x multi.

HT generates more heat, thats why if you're going to go for the MAX OC, most people turn it off
