if you plan to get far, start with an aftermarket cooler (the hyper 212 evo is ~$30)
once you get that, try a fsb of 257/258, try to keep the NB/HT/RAM speeds as close to stock as possible, enable LLC (load line calibration) if it's available on your motherboard, and a VCore of 1.45V (approx, may differ for you)... if you dont have LLC i would try in the low 1.5V's

have you tried unlocking the fourth core?

Since the 720 is BE I'd just use multiplier for the majority of overclocking it, maybe slight tweaks to the fsb once I'd found the max multiplier I could reach.

When I had that same chip the max I could get out of it was 3600Mhz. You may get more or you might get less only time will tell.

Once you get it OCed be sure to post your results in the AMD overclocking club. You'll find the sticky in my sig.
