Asus Maximus viii I7 6700k newegg combo. Bios help please.

Hello and thanks in advance for any help.
I've been building comps for awhile, but haven't really overclocked since, well a long time when I custom built a peltier chilled system with swiftech water blocks and 2 8800gtx in SLI.

The combo in the thread heading, I just ordered and I would appreciate some bios help. I am NOT planning on overclocking this CPU. I know the combo comes with PC3000 ram and if I can run it at that, stably, then ok. The bios nowadays is overwhelming with choices, and quite frankly, I would just like some help with bios settings that won't harm my hardware, won't overvolt my CPU, and does what the chip was intended to do.

Thanks again for your help.

XMP memory profile can be applied also.
If you do decide to overclock or tune it yourself then http://www.overclock.net/t/1570313/skylake-overclocking-guide-with-statistics will help
