i am likely to overclock my videocard (NVIDIA) on my vista, but i'm hesitating for the reason that I may destroy my video card's performance, even system's performance. and i've tried to overclock it using nTune but doesn't work out. What should I do? suggestions/recommendations are open.
Is there a high possibility that my system unit will crash if I overclock?

overclocking obviously means playing around with your system with fire , if you overclock with wrong values you will surely land up some where u dont want..
Over clocking isn't that bad as long as you scan for artifacts regularly when overclocking,as soon as some appear you drop the over clock down a little until you find your stable over clock.
Riva tuner lets you overclock,some cards have their own utility to do this.
Ati tool will let you scan for artifacts
Be sure to watch those load temps too though.
What Nvidia card are you trying to over clock? And why didn't Ntune work out?
