OK there is a guide, its not really for beginners, so it boils down to...
http://www.thinkcomputers.org/intel-ivy-bridge-overclocking-guide/
1. Disable all power saving adn turbo boost features and pick a load calibration, 1 being very stiff and one voltage constantly, 2 being a little more relax(easier to achieve stability), i prefer level 2.
2. Set voltage to fixed at first and drop it to 0.9v. (easier than fixed)
3. Boot into windows and run prime 95 or similar stresstest to test for stability for atleast half an hour. This will give you an idea of how sensitive your specific CPU is to voltage change.
4. Increase your voltage to 1.2v and multiplyer to 4.2GHz. Test thoroughly for an hour. Keep a close eye on temps with real temp or HWmonitor.
To go above 4.2GHz.
Increase Multiplier one at a time testing for half an hour between each bump. When stability is lost, add 0.05v and try again.
Repeat process until you reach your desired OC or unacceptable temps(drop one clock and/or Voltage) and viola you have your OC...
Just follow the process and you can OC with ease.

I'm sure a quick 30 seconds on Google would provide more information than you could want.
Do you have a more specific question? This is a broad topic.

Wasn't trying to be as much as cover that OP should be willing to do a bit of leg work if he/she expects other to do the same.
Submitted before I was done typing though.
