I doubt any company will do it as when your PC inevitably kicks the bucket due to the overheating the overclocking caused then you could hold them responsible and demand they replace the PC.

Why not google it and do it yourself? usually all thats involved is sticking in a bunch of extra fans, then upping the modifier in the BIOS and on the graphics card, there are programs out there for doing it for you like RivaTuner

Hi CaptainChing, the computer Tweaking & Modding Forum could help you out big time here. I think they even have a specific sub-forum for overclocking. Check it out anyway, hopefully you'll get the advice you're looking for.

You could try having a chat with the lads in MCS computers on Parnell Street in the same set of buildings as the credit union, Its the one with all the computers in the Window, They might have a bit of information on it.
