Hello, it's been a while since I've built a computer from scratch. My most recent build was designed to be a hackintosh. I have both Windows 7 and Mavericks installed on a dual boot.

I was wondering if someone could give me some starting information on overclocking the CPU, memory and graphics card. The settings are a little overwhelming. Specs are below. Thank you very much!
