I havent bought any CPU cooler since it comes with one . I'm looking for small OC, but still stable.
Thank you for your help ^^

I also have an i7 930..
I started by just raising my bclock up in increments of 10 and running prime starting from the 2.8 base.. I got it to 3.7 stable after about an hour of messing around

I am at 4.0 with a Fenir Titan AfterMarket Cooler (Full 100% Load at 65oC)

Seems stable, played a few games for a few hours without any stutters.

Check what your load temps are before you try to overclock on the stock cooler. if there ok raise the clock slowly keeping a close eye on temps as the i7s are hot. Even better buy a better cooler.
