Just ordered a set up from this site, opted not to have them overclock it as I wanted to try it on my own.

i7 930 cpu with the "Asetek LCLC 240 Liquid Cooling system w/ 240MM Radiator and Dual Fans" and "Maximum 120MM Color Case Cooling Fans for your selected case"

Mother board is, "GigaByte GA-X58A-UD3R Intel X58 Chipset SLI/CrossFireX Ultra Durable™3 Mainboard Triple-Channel DDR3/1600 ATX Mainboard w/ 7.1 Dobly Audio, eSATA, GbLAN, USB3.0, 2 x SATA-III RAID, IEEE1394a, 4 Gen2 PCIe, 2 PCIe X1 & 1 PCI"


Does anyone know of some settings to get my cpu running around 3.5+GHz

I've seen some people posting about O.C. their i7 930 to around 4.3GHz but I'm not trying to over do it.

I'm pretty new to over clocking, so at the least, some starting point tips would be nice.

Be sure you inderstand that by YOU doing the OC it voids the warranty from CP.
If you haven't got your build you can always call them and request it before it is shipped.
 
Cheers!

This is a good beginners guide. You should be able to use it with a 930 since the default multiplier is 21 for the 930.
