If your motherboard supports it.

There are only a few left on the market that allow for overclocking non K chips and I'm not sure if the one you have allows it or not. If it does it will probably require a specific BIOS version.

Edit: Looks like there is a compatible BIOS listed on that page. You need to be comfortable with flashing your BIOS and all the risks that are inherent with that before you can even think about an overclock though.
