overclocking your graphics card is when you increase the core and memory clock speeds past their normal working frequencys but theres a good chance the card will not be very stable and could crash,however some guys get round these problems by modding the cooling and fitting a better gpu cooler such as a Zalman VF900-CU Quiet Copper VGA Cooler. however overclocking will affect your warranty and can damage the card if pushed too much

XfX and EVGA have lifetime warranties that are also modding friendly.
