    Today I will be switching out my system and massively upgrading to a new motherboard (EVGA NVIDIA NForce 680I SLI), CPU (Core 2 Duo E6600), RAM (2GB Corsair DDR2 800 PC 6400) and, graphics card (NVIDIA Geforce 8800 GTS). I really want to overclock this board because I heard it is awesome to overclock.

    I am pretty novice at overclocking. I am looking for any advice on what to set in the BIOS to get the best overclocking or maybe a link to a guide or something. Anyone that has experience with overclocking this motherboard please let me know what settings work best, especially if you have a similar setup.

    it's not easy to say 'what to set' to get the best overclocking. You might be able to change multipliers,fsb bus speeds, you might need to apply a agp/pci lock.. it really depends on your hardware.
    I suggest you read the sticky called 'simple overclock faq' at the top of this forum first.(http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic70998.html)

    if you've read that and still have questions, please post them here.
