Everybody raise their right hand and repeat after me:
"No matter how cool it sounds, no matter what my cousin's buddy's uncle's
friend who works for [insert processor manufacturer here] says, no matter
what the gaming magazines say, overclocking is a Bad Thing (tm), and WILL
lead to flakey behavior sooner or later."
There is a reason Dell, Compaq, IBM, etc. do not overclock. If you run
your car's engine at redline, it will probably run fine for a while, maybe
even a long time. But eventually it will break.
