Then I wouldn't bother. It has a locked multiplier, so you'll only be able to get a few hundred MHz at best from the base clock. And increasing the base clock will increase everything else that runs off it too. The best you'll get won't hardly be noticeable in real time gaming.

Nope. You might go from 3.2 GHz to 3.4 GHz. 3.5GHz at best. And then only with some tedious trial and error. And only if you have a good piece of silicone. My 965 Black Edition starts out at 3.4 GHz and I was only able to get to 4.0 GHz... and it has an unlocked multiplier.

But if you want to do it anyway, just type "phenom II overclock" in your search engine and take your pick from all the hits.
