I know how to overclock the graphics cards. But don't know how to overcock cpu, ram.
For graphics cards there are different utilities for this.

Thanks so much for the explanation. Incase if a person spoils his computer in the event of OCing, is it possible to find out that the computer was spoiled doing OCing.

I have a IBM laptop which has a 3 yrs warranty. As the warranty is about to expire, I wanted to do something so that it completely gets destroyed so that it can be replaced. The problem is that the engn. shouldn't come to know that something has been purposely done with it to destroy it. Now, is this possible.

^^^ that will be a hard thing to do cuz no company gives warranty for burn cases.so it'll be a bit of a gamble.
run a burn-in test and run it for as long as a component doesnt fail.
the risk being if something burns,u wont get warranty.

Actually one of my friend burnt his laptop due to lightning and got the whole piece replaced... so i was thinking of doing the same, but you know, lightning is not in my hand...
