Overclocking! Can't Post

Don't Know If This Is Actually Where I Should Put It But Hey!

Well have you ever Overclocked your CPU, GPU or tuned up your fans? What have your experiences been?
I want to know quite a bit as i'm looking into overclocking my computer! (I know the risks)

Is it worth it and well let me hear from you first!

overclocking is great as long as you know what your doing! In most cases overclocking will give you a substantial increase in speed. Lots of people say overclocking damages your hardware this is false... heat damages your hardware overclocking generates more heat! overclocking can shorten the life of your hardware but most likely you will be upgrading befor that ever happens so i would say start with small increases experiment make sure you know how to reset your bios and have fun

I have overclocked many things.. the one i remember most was my celeron 566 that could oc too 1 ghz befor 1 ghz was even out it was awesome at the time... and ebay was selling these hotcakes as rock solid celeron chips!
