I 'm still in the learning stages of Computer Building so please bear with me. What exactly is overclocking and what methods can be used to correct this?...Anyone out there know?
 
To say it simply : making a component (gfx card, cpu , memory,....) run at a higher speed then its stock speed.

And overclocking of a cpu or memory module can be done in the BIOS. Overclocking a gfx card can be done by a small utility tool(program) for example coolbits for Nvidia cards and rage3d for ATI cards.

Hope i explained it good ;)

Grtzzzz
