Trying for 3.6Ghz OC, Q6600 G0, 1066 ram on GA-EP45-UD3R

[thefranchise11]

I recently set up a new build with the following system specs and am looking for some help getting the ideal bios M.I.T. settings to achieve 3.6ghz on a Q6600 G0 using Xigmatek's awesome S1283 cooler.
I've noticed how helpful many posters have been, especially Lsdmeasap on providing excellent information and help with this and am hoping for the same thing.
Currently I am running at 3.0ghz (cool, fast and stable) but would like to run at 3.6 with optimal settings. Thank you in advance.

System specs:
Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3R rev 1.1 bios F5
Intel Q6600 G0 SLACR vid 1.2375
Xigmatek S1283 cpu cooler w/crossfire bracket & Artic Silver 3
G.Skill 4GB DDR2 1066 (2 x 2GB) F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK - Newegg.com - G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Desktop Memory

What are your BIOS settings for 3.0GHz?

Why would you want to volt the MCH core so much?? 400Mhz is perfectly fine...
Should be able to leave it stock.
