    Need help overclocking my Amd athlon 64

    i have an amd athlon 64 3000+ 1.8ghz single core processor. I believe its a socket 939. I want to over clock it to 2.2ghz at least. I have been monitering my cpu alot with my logitech g15 keyboard and it has been telling me that was using 100% of my processor during most of my games. I have never overclocked before so if you could tell me what voltage settings and other stuff to put. Any help would be appreciated. thx
