I would test it at stock clocks just to give yourself a baseline.

Okay so i think im ready for overclocking now.
So what i plan on doing is leave all settings as they are atm.
Im only going to change the vcore and the multiplier.
Im starting with the stock volts and then upping the multiplier until it's unstable.
And continue untill im at around 4.4 - 4.6 ghz, just correct me if im doingit wrong

you should only up the multi by one click(.5) and you should not need to up the vcore at this point.
as a rule we only raise the vcore as we need to because this adds heat.
try to keep in mind that excess heat and excess voltage are what damages things.
you are no where near these limits but learning that now and watching the core and cpu temps in hardware monitor will help you later.

These are the types of information that most users supply in order to be able to help them very much. Of course beginning with a setting that is 'known' to pass P95 Blend mode makes good sense, because a failed P95 Blend test is not going to give a baseline of a configuration that 'does' work.
CPU Tab in CPUz from CPUID com
Memory Tab in CPUz from CPUID com
SPD Tab in CPUz from CPUID com
And this is screen capture of HWMonitor (free version) from CPUID com
HWMonitor has been scrolled enough and large enough to show Min/Max of Voltages and includes the CPU CORE TEMPS fully visible.
This capture is made of HWMonitor after it has been open on the desktop logging Min/Max temps and voltages while Prime 95 was running Blend Mode test on all cores for at least 20 mins and then the capture of HWMonitor was made and it shows the Min/Max temps and voltages before P95 Blend was started and while running P95 Blend mode and gives much greater insight into how the system is performing without guessing.
In order to attach screenshots of INDIVIDUAL images as suggested, first crop and capture the images with Snipping Tool found in Windows Accessories or equivalent. Then click on Go Advanced, a button at the bottom of every new post window. Then click on the little paperclip tool at the top of the Advanced post window when it opens. Clicking on the paperclip tool brings up the file browser/upload tool and the rest is fairly obvious.
