O/C = higher costs. You need higher frequency memory, bigger CPU/case coolers |

and potentially a bigger PSU. If your budget is constrained then buy |

memory/cooler/PSU that will run with default settings. The 10% performance |

improvement that a modern CPU may give you when O/C is not really worth the |

hassle. |
