Course of action depends on your hardware:
1. All production chips (6100/6200/6300 series) in Supermicro H8QGi, H8QG6, H8QG7, H8QGL, H8DGi, H8DG6 or H8SGL board
 Use OCNG5: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1836265
2. Production 6200/6300 series in other boards
 Use TPC (psmax 1 trick): http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1708870
 Note this does not overclock per se. It makes the CPU operate at all-core turbo at all times (something these CPUs have a problem with).
3. ES 6100 (MC) in any board
 Use TPC.
 Disable PowerNow and CPB/Turbo in the BIOS.
 Linux:
 Sample basic code (3000 MHz, 1.25V):
 Windows:
 Sample basic code (3000 MHz, 1.25V):
4. ES 6200/6300 (IL/AD) in any board
 Use TPC:
  
 Enable PowerNow and CPB/Turbo in the BIOS.
 Linux:
 Use Performance scaling governor (or otherwise disable Ondemand scaling governor);
 if you're using [H] Ubuntu appliance or followed Ubuntu desktop installation guide for
 FAH (with fahinstall utility), you're already set.
 Sample basic code (3000 MHz, 1.175V):
 TPC installation on Linux is covered here: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1669698
 Windows:
 Modify power plan settings: change Minimum Processor State to 100%
 Sample basic code (3000 MHz, 1.175V), run from admin cmd (critical: one line at a time!)
 or a batch file (most convenient and preferred):
