Hi Zaty Pak :)
In short its making Computer Hardware work at a higher rate them its stock manufactured rate, please see > Overclocking - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Overclocking is basically the art of running computer components faster than the rated settings. In other words, having a 2GHz processor run at 2.4GHz (or whatever). Can apply to all components, but is generally applied principally to CPUs and RAM. For more information, refer to the posts/threads in this sub-forum.
Looks like Google is working for me. Is it down in your part of the world?

Hehe Thanks for the information guys :)
It's like Red Bull for computers lol If not done right, can shorten the lifespan!!
Overclocking can also be done to GPUs to increase framerate/performance in games that are graphically demanding. If you don't know what you're doing and you plan on OC'ing, make sure to ask for help first to avoid frying any of your hardware. The SAFEST overclocking is done with thorough research.
Overclocking or OC'. Is to basically squize more from your stock manufacture speed. You can oc a 2.5ghz cpu to run at 3.1ghz. Overclocking takes time unless you know what ypur doing and overclocking any of your hardware as a result your warranty is void. So somethings to think about before doing the doo. More voltage put on a cpu or vga cards more heat produces. You will need a good cooling system rather thans stock cooling.
Tips: do some research before doing your own oc. Never copy anyone else oc specs through vids. All systems are different unless you have the same specs. Thanks any questions ask away.
