I'm relatively new here to Tom's HW, and as such am kind of a newbie in terms of PCs.

I know the very basics, but that's it. :\

Current build.

CPU: AMD Athlon II x4 645 @ 3.1GHz
GPU: HIS Radeon HD 7850 2GB Stock
MOBO: ASUS M5A97 EVO
PSU: Corsair CX600
RAM: 8GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600MHz
CPU Cooler: GAMER STORM DEEPCOOL


Upgrading my CPU to an FX 6300, and I see a lot of people saying it's a "breeze to overclock".

Thing is, I've never learned how to OC, and was wondering if someone here could help me out?

Be it give me a rundown, or give me a link to a fairly simple guide? I've been in the Bios a few times, but was completely fucking baffled, and never really cared to learn what's what in there until now.
