I got a Intel core 2 Quad Q9550, Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3, and Corsair C4DHX6400 800Mhz currently running in 5-5-5-13...i dont know how to overclock it...pls help me

post a cpu-z print screen 1st.
and list a full system spec followed

set ur multiplier to 9 (usually default is only 8)..den play wif ur clocking (usually default is 333MHz). Better that the clock is not more than 20% of ur default processor speed...and keep in mind that to see carefully for your RAM clock not more than 850MHz. So, adjust urself...
if ur pc cant boot or can't even see the bios thing when u boot up after u oc, keep on press the "Ins" key when u press ur pc reboot, which is zero at your num pad, to restore the default bios settings for your mobo..
