A few of the lads have 146 opts running at 3GHZ.Not to bad for a £140 CPU.
Not necciserily (sp).

Overclocking is basically making your processor work harder and faster, meaning you could potentially burn out your processor and/or make it run very very hot, meaning you may have to invest in a new cooling system.

I'm not saying you shouldn't do it, hell, there have been many cases where the processor runs faster but simply runs hotter... but personally, I don't want to risk destroying a brand new £140 processor.
