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

overclock
Overclock - to raise the speed of the CPU, GPU, memory, or any buses with the quantifier that tells its speed: "hertz".
To overclock is to force some hardware mentioned above to run at faster, often non-intented speeds.
Generally this is doable, however few factors come in such as when one overclocks a piece of hardware to its max the power circuitry usually does not deliver enough voltage to the hardware, thus the voltage needs to be manually raised.
When raising the voltage, heat will be generated more substantially, which is the hardware's number one enemy.
Thus is why companies like Thermaltake and Globalwin have mustered their efforts to produce efficient and powerful cooling systems to counteract the heat.

Using the motherboard's BIOS. I set the FSB to 210mhz, thus overclocking a 10mhz difference on my FSB.
I used RivaTuner to overclock my video card's memory's clock speed from 250mhz to 305mhz.

Overclocked
A PC or computer that has been rewired or reprogrammed to work faster than normal; usually causing massive overheats and explosions if not cooled properly

overclock
To raise the clock speed of a graphics processing unit, central processing unit, or memory module by raising the front side bus (FSB) or the multiplier.
The end clock speed is determined by using the following equation
Multiplier * FSB = mhz
Sometimes additional voltage is required to achieve higher speeds.
Overclocking almost always requires more cooling than "stock" parts provide. And generally shortens the life of a componant.
