at least from my understanding you can't really overclock it sorry

^^^that's not correct.

 

There are a number of overclocking guides for Nehalem chips (i.e. yours) with your motherboard, I'd start by googling. Thoroughly read these, at minimum:

While your CPU has a fixed multiplier, you can still overclock by raising the BCLK and voltages.

 

My i7-950 was able to do a stable 3.8 GHz. I've since replaced it with a 6c/12t Xeon from that era and can do 4.5. The i7-920 I believe was able to do near 4GHz, but I'm not sure.
