I am new to OC. I have a Q6600 cpu and Raideon HDxxxx PCIe card. I want to OC cpu, do I also need to raise frequency of Raideon card or not? Which way is recommended?

on a processor like this lga 775 the oc is being made by increasing the fsb-blck. your multiplyer is locked on that socket.
my increased the fsb tho you are increasing the voltage on pcie lanes where your gpus is installed and the voltage on Northridge chipset.
in comparison to lga 1155 or newer, aggressive overclock can hurt your system and most likely your mobo does has any voltage protection.

I can help you through if you tell me the exact model of motherboard
