I know its a old cpu but I want to do it anyway,I have a Gigabyte P55-US3L.
I have a Thermaltake Contac 30 cooler and my idle temp is about 25,with prime95 is about 45,so I think I can easily oveclock ....please answer if you know the right thing,thank you :)

you can definitely push that cpu some more. 

id start by increasing the bus to core ratio then increasing the fsb {while increasing the core voltage when you have too}

I just raised the core ratio from 133 to 160x25 and the temperature is 60 degrees with 4.0 Ghz with prime95 small FFT......

should I be concerned,and should I boost something else then the core ratio ???
