Are you taking prescripted medication?!

Oi Rob, whats wrong with me?? Eh??

Overclocking will make your CPU run slightly warmer, the thing that will really add heat is altering the voltage (usually done to increase stability on higher clocks) but a decent heatsink and fan should mean this is countered reasonably enough. If all else fails you could get water cooling and a peltier!!!

As for case modding, avoid it like the plague, its bloody expensive!! I want a quite PC that looks cool so I'm spraying my monitor, buying a keyboard, replacing my four case fans (at £15 a pop!) and sticking a Flower heatsink cooler on. Then I want a window and a blow hole in the side, finally replace my LEDs and add an LCD display either in the front or inside somewhere where I can see it through the window.

All in all we're looking at about £200 at least!!

I always thought that overclocking did heat up the CPU more than usual... So, your PC wouldn't blow up, but it wouldn't last as long because you are subjecting it to greater heat stress.

Is this not the case?

and why is that turbo?, i think more people should ovrclock but they are led to believe it to be naughty and it will blow up your pc, which is crap, why not get free speed from your now old systems and save money.

No, we DON'T need any more people like Andi!
