2 things A) your pc sucks really hard but i assume you know that and will therfore not expect to be able to run crysis on high or anything. B) i believe the protocol is up it by 50mhz then benchmark it to see if its fine then upon crashing drop the clock by 100mhz. it might be 100 and 200 respectively though. you can overclock in the BIOS and remember to read a bunch of guides before doing anything. also no one can tell you how much u can OC its just trial and error
