what is overclocking and why would you want to do it?

Its basiclally making your hardware go faster. I bought my AMD 3000+ (1.8 ghz) overclocked it to 2.2 ghz and now its the same speed as AMD 3700+ So in all, it makes you PC go quicker and saves you money!

Ya but i find overlcocking video cards does not drastically improve fps in gmaes, only improves stability and allows feature to be turned on.
