From The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) [jargon]:
overclock
/oh'vr?klok?/, vt.
To operate a CPU or other digital logic device at a rate higher than it was
designed for, under the assumption that the manufacturer put some {slop}
into the specification to account for manufacturing tolerances.
Overclocking something can result in intermittent {crash}es, and can even
burn things out, since power dissipation is directly proportional to
{clock} frequency. People who make a hobby of this are sometimes called
?overclockers?; they are thrilled that they can run their CPU a few percent
faster, even though they can only tell the difference by running a
{benchmark} program. See also {case mod}.
