Overclocking appeals to a wide variety of PC users, but it is not for everyone. If you are easily frustrated by problems with your PC, troubleshooting is an annoyance for you, or you frequently rely on others to help resolve issues with your PC, overclocking can only complicate your life. But if you enjoy (or at least tolerate) troubleshooting and tweaking, and the idea of getting a faster system for practically no extra money sounds pretty slick, consider overclocking as a viable means to an end. It might even become a hobby.
You should begin your experimentation on an extra PC, rather than on your main system. Even if you don't maintain the only copy of a Fortune 100 company's financial records on your main box, you probably don't want to lose data or deal with the frustration of not having a functional and reliable main PC when you need it. Remember, back up everything!
