So, I am having a thought of overclocking my CPU since I do not have any money at all to be able to buy a new CPU. Do I have components which can handle 2.4hz? to 3.0hz? or 2.8hz? I am currently running on:

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.40hz
Motherboard: ASUS P5N-E SLI
RAM: 4GB DDR2 4x1gb
Graphics: Nvidia GeForce 9500 GT
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit

If I am missing anything important, please tell me.

Yes, you didn't mention what CPU cooler you're using. To overclock a Q6600 you need a decent cooler, not the Intel one that comes with it. With sensible cooling it should do 3Ghz with hardly any effort or additional voltages.
