Personnaly I don't believe much in overclocking.
Overclocking is like using Nitros on a car. Sure it will give you a burst of speed, but at the expense of the life of your motor (CPU), and if done or used incorrectly, you'll scatter your drivetrain all over the track as soon as you hit the button.
Chips are CHEAP. Just go buy a better one. If you really want to overclock, experiment with some really old obsolete chips first. That way you're not out between $200 and $1000 for a new CPU should you blow your existing one.
As a 'Gearhead', I believe there is no substitute for displacement.
