Need help Ocing my 6850!

[daviesm118]

Just got my msi r6850 cyclone pe installed, came with afterburner, and installed kombuster (benchmark). I've never dabbled in overclocking, but i'm willing to give it a go. This heat sync is ridiculous so what could go wrong?
I really don't know where to start, and I'd rather not mess with the voltage unless its clearly safe to do so. All I really want to do is kick it up a few notches without getting too advanced!

Overclockers Club got your card up 1005/1200. Results vary of course depending on you case, air flow, ambient temperature, humidity, and individual card.
