Just want to make sure before I go mad with settings :p

If I increase at 10mhz a time and I go a little too high, the Computer will usually lock up won't it?? and my card should be safe...

Or If the Card gets too hot, the The graphics will go choppy and the game will start slowing down before anything burns out wont it?
 
try to make sure you have semi adequate cooling on the GPU and maybe RAM also
then, try it like that, and go to in games for about half an hour
usually, a program for OC'n will have a find max limit, go to it, then go down a bit and play a grfx intense game on it for a long time
if nothing happens its good
but you will always want some better cooling

ATI tool = good ATI OC util
NV Tweak = good Nvidia OC util
both have find max setting
