Basic AMD OC'ing:
Disable turbo mode in BIOS, raise the CPU multi one increment, save and exit to Win. Run a stress CPU test. If it passes, repeat. When the stress test fails (is unstable), start increasing the vcore in as small amount as allowed. Repeat testing. Keep increasing vcore until stable or you reach 1.5V. After 1.5V, you increase it more at your own risk. Basically, it is raise the multi, increase the vcore when and if needed to make it stable.

But don't get your hopes up too high. The 860K isn't a great OC'er unless you win the silicone lottery.
