Is there any way to set the overclock level like turning a dial? Or is it preset? On the back of the box, it says it has 6 levels. The computer I bought came with it, but I never opened the computer to check, just asking before I actually open it.

You OC by using the nVidia CP.
Edit:
DO NOT OVERCLOCK IT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO RISK LOSING YOUR VIDEO CARD.

I know that, I overclocked before, I just thought there was like a dial
EDIT: What option is it in the CP?
Or should I just use Riva Tuner?

You should leave it alone.

Im pretty sure OC means over clocked. which is why you should leave it alone. unless you want a fire inside your computer.

Not sure if it was overclocked already, or I have to overclock it myself, that's why I asked o.o

OC edition means Over clocked edition. meaning there is no need to overclock it.

Well I bought a 8800GT, not pre-overclocked, and now it's faster then any OC'ed versions out there. Just because you don't want to do it, doesn't mean that there is no need.

Curious, can an integrated GeForce 6100 be OC'd? I've never OC'd before as I don't really have a need to, but I wouldn't mind doing so, if possible.

Doubt it.. and if you can it would be unstable and would get overheated.
