Intel Mobos are not good for OC... OK.. If system hangs after OC ur gfx card means u OC above the cards safe limits....(I hope so)... So, just OC by lil increase like if the default clock is 640MHz, then increase by 5 or 10 MHz.. and look for stability... Then report here...

Just go thru the link and it helps u...

Sure.... get atleast a 500W PSU or a Corsair VX450W... Better in case of OC....

Don't OC if not required, reduces life of parts

how are u getting 8800 gts and X38 mobo ..i guess its second hand ...??

u will need something like coolermaster 600w or corsair vx450 ....to give sufficient power to mobo and gfx card in case u overclock both ...

my suggestion go for Vx 450
