Hi

You'll want to keep the temps below 55C and the voltage below 1.5V.

I'd recommend running prime 95 at stock settings and monitor the temps with a program like Hardware Monitor to see if you actually have any headroom (in terms of temperature) to overclock at all.

If you do then start reading up on some AMD phenom II 945 overclocking guides, you might find this useful: http://www.overclockers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=596023&highlight=overclock+amd
