OVERCLOCKING - The process of installing high hopes, dumb luck, and several paychecks into a rectangular box which transmits a signal to a screen that displays your fate. The outcome is usually depressing.

I overclocked my 3.0ghz Pentium 4 Processor to an ungodly fast 4.8ghz Pentium 4 with my Prometia Phase Change Unit

hey.. i upped my fsb (front side bus), now i have 4GHz from 3.4 (speeds) on my P4 (Pentium 4 Processor) and the liquid coolings helping transfer the heat away rather well keeping it a nice and stable overclock.

Overclocker

An idiot who cannot accept that the people who make the hardware know more about it than they do, and cannot accept to just have things running a tiny amount slower and lasting a whole lot longer, which is generally cheaper in the long run (if you want faster pay more - your only going to end up paying more when you fry it)

Overclocker - its mint look how fast it is
Sensible person - your frying it
Overclocker - no i'm not theres a fan
sensible person - yes but the heat stress will shorten the life meaning someday it won't work
