just read Overclocking guides on the internet a few of them can be found here on OCN and be sure to watch your load tempratures and if you have a intel cpu you dont want to go above 1.40v on cpu voltage
You should at that voltage be able to get 4.6ghz or if you have a good chip you should get 4.8ghz using 1.38v, my old 2500K would do 4.6ghz on 1.375v and 4.8ghz on 1.395v.
The cooling will be one of the important factors on the X58 setup as will the board.
My old I7 950 would do 4.5ghz stable but the temp's were far to high for my liking, as they were hitting the high 80's with a 360mm rad dropped it down to 4.2ghz and they stayed within the low 70's.
Cannot remember exactly the setting's I used on the Rampage II Extreme but I think it was something like:
