I have a pentium iv 2.8 ghz processor, with 200 mhz fsb at 800 mhz bus speed. Should I be overclocking it to increase performance?

Is it a prescott or a northwood? Socket 478 or LGA775? What motherboard do you have? What cooling do you have? What mem do you have? I had a 2.8E that ran at 3.5ghz on an Asus P4P800 with ease.
