I only recently found out that you can overclock Graphics Cards too. But I got my PC with no extra cooling system and I have absolutely zero experience with overclocking or cooling systems whatsoever.
1. What are the requirements for overclocking?
2. How do I overclock my Processor?
3. How do I overclock my Graphics Card?
4. Are there any dangers and how long could I keep my overclocking running for?
Gaming on Alienware GTX 690 i7-3960X 3.30 GHZ

Re: Overclocking CPU & GPU?
No need to overclock that, in the end you will rage for getting 5% more power but losing warranty if your hardware breaks when overclicked..
Seriously there is no need to overclock lol

Re: Overclocking CPU & GPU?
Is your cpu watercooled or through a heatsink?

Re: Overclocking CPU & GPU?
I wouldn't say useless, it's just that the risk outweigh the benefits
