I've been reading various tech forums in preparation for building my first system and getting some insight into tweaking it. Among the forum crowd, it seems like overclocking your cpu is a pretty popular thing, if not standard fare when building a system.
My question is, what else can you get out of OCing besides extra clock cycles and inner satisfaction? Have any of the guys sufficiently impressed a lady with his OC prowess? If so, what do the ladies look for in an overclock: max frequency? top fsb? blazing vcore? % over stock speed?
If I were ripped like Michael Phelps, then this wouldn't be an issue. But I'm not, so thus I'm curious about this topic. Too bad I didn't test this out while I was still at MIT
