Noob to Overclocking - New System

[Mudbone]

I just got a new system, have never overclocked, and am wondering if I should. I play quite a few of the latest and greatest games.

Any simple tips for a noob overclocker? Guides? Do's/Don'ts?
Thanks in advance.

If you need more fps in your favourite game, then yes, you should overclock.
I have 1 tip.
1. Overclock CPU in bios/uefi, never in some windows app.
