I couldn't find any useful info on your board. I did see a couple reports of decent overclocks but no real reviews. If you could post a picture of your BIOS screens we can help you with that part.

You have a locked multiplier CPU so we will have to use bus overclocking to make any ground. I recommend you start by looking at dolks guide.

Use the core unlock feature your board's BIOS has and try unlock the 4th core. If you are lucky it is stable and gives a bit more punch.

Manual is here: http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Pr...?DetailID=1214&CategoryID=1&MenuID=19&LanID=0

The core unlocking and overclocking tools seem to be found on pg. 40-42 in the manual but unfortunately, there are no real explanations of the line items' function. I assume that "CPU Core Unlock" refers to unlocking hidden cores and "Core x control" refers to activating/deactivating individual cores.
