P4 3.0 GHz (LGA775)?
I just built a new computer (P4 3.0 GHz /w HT, SimpleTech 1GB Dual Channel RAM, GeForce 6600 GT) and I was wondering how I might go about overclocking. I've already got the video card OCed to 574/1149, and I was thinking about OCing other things. Is it hard to do? I heard that since the pins are in the motherboard for LGA775 CPUs, the motherboard is where you overclock it. Would an ECS 915P-A be okay?
Thanks in advance for the help.

Not sure how well that board overclocks (though LGA775 in general isn't known for high overclockability... or really any benefits other than PCI-E, actually), but I know it will have the options in the BIOS. Try looking at the pictures here
