Unless you're completely literate with computer maintenance I do NOT suggest an overclock of any hardware. A few MHZ too high can mean the different between a fried GFX/Processor. It's a very tedious process. Better left for a manufacturer to do than an at home person. You'll only get medial performance increase out of a clocked card/processor anyways. While it sounds glamorous, overclocking really doesn't do that much. You would be better off just going up in processor type than possibly frying the one you currently have.
