If you cool the components you overclock properly then you generally have absolutely nothing to worry about, be that a decent air cooler, water cooling or phase change etc. As an example of how soon "it stops" I've had an athlon XP 1800+ running as a 2000+ which I use to host a couple of game servers, it's on as often as any other machine is on, 8-12 hours a day, it's well ventilated, it only uses a single heatpipe cooler for the processor and has never crashed.
