You can't. Any Intel Sandy Bridge CPU that has a 'K' after the numbers (in your case 2320) signals that it's unlocked and OC'able. Yours doesn't, therefore you can't.

You still can overclock but not much like 300-400mhz but imo I wouldn't worry about the cpu speed right now more that you don't have a graphics card

I just learned something today, thanks!

After doing a little Googling, any CPU without the K can only be increased by +4 from the stock multiplier. Since Sandy Bridge's base clock is 100Mhz, you can only overclock it to 400Mhz higher.
