I just upgraded my computer and I want to try and get the most out of it without running any risks. I'm not a very experienced overclocker or anything so I just wanted to get some opinions on what I should run my specs at without running any risks.
My system is:
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 g0 stepping
GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3L
ATI Radeon HD 3850
Crucial Ballistix 2GB DDR2 800
Corsair 620hx PSU

If you have some suggestions please list everything I should run it at. Like for example if I should overclock my cpu to 3.2ghz what should the numbers be(356x9 or 400x8 etc), the volts, etc. Thanks in advance.

You cant really ask people for the volts and the clocks......it all depends on your processor....

This guy could run a Q6600 @ 3.2 at 1.325 (made up numbers) and this guy needs 1.4 it all depends......

for the 356x9 or 400x8 it really doesn't matter.......I would do 356....puts less stress on FSB and then just make your memory timings tighter
