Desperate cry for help to over clock

Hey, 

I'm Andy from Darjeeling and I've recently put together a computer for my little brother and I wanted to over clock it but don't have a clue how to...

So I've got

Core 2 quad q8400

Asus P5q-vm motherboard 

3*2gb 667mhz DDR2 RAM

Zotac GT 610 2gb Synergy Edition

But I'm planning to to replace it with AMD R9 270x

1tb hard drive 

Corsair VS500

 

So can anybody please help me with the over clocking. 

Thnak you.

Hey, 

 

I'm Andy from Darjeeling and I've recently put together a computer for my little brother. He does a little bit of gaming and a little bit of video editing on it. I wanted to over clock it but don't have a clue on how to.

 

So I've got

Core 2 quad q8400

Asus P5q-vm motherboard 

3*2gb 667mhz DDR2 RAM

Zotac GT 610 2gb Synergy Edition

The way I would overclock on this is, Set the voltage to 1.3625 if you have a decent cooler, and increase the multiplier by 4 and stress test the cpu, do this until it crashes, and go back to GHz before the crash.
