I have done two.

My 486SX25 was over clocked to 40Mhz (by changing the oscillator chip on a
socket in the mobo) and the first Pentium I bought - a 75Mhz has run (and
is
still running) at 100Mz from the day I built it. These were very
significant
performance upgrades for little or no outlay.

Todays machines are so fast and so cheap these is little point in
overclocking other than doing it for the sake of it.
