	Sorry. I was not being harsh. I keep forgetting that emails do
not convey emotion unless I put some smily faces. :)

	Close to none. The bus should be the last thing you touch
when overclocking because it can cause all kind of trouble. However,
I am no expert though using k6s for the past 2 years. My experience
is that they get really unstable with more than 50 Mhz overclock due
to temperature restrictions specially (high voltage). The k6-2, k6-3 and
k6-2+ should be better suitable for overclocking in this particular
order.
	You should consult http://www.tomshardware.com/ for a
complete overclocking guide IMHO.
