Here is a guide to overclocking on your motherboard. However, I caution you to be very careful with overclocking, especually if this your first time. Take it slow and thoroughly test your machine during the overclock with processor intensive tasks like games or benchmarks.

U shouldnt have much trouble at all OC'ng up to 3.0ghz. . . 2.8 should definately be no problem - even with a Stock CPU Cooler .
