Not sure if this is the right thread, but anybody have any hilarious/terrifying overclocking inicidents? I have an ATI video card(5550 series, kind of a rare version with the 1GB Vram), which I set to auto-overclock, saw it was going to take a while, and went to eat dinner. Came back to find it at around 760 Mhz and rising(from a 500 clock). Oh and the temperature was 101C.  Turns out the fan had failed in the middle of the overclock. I ran it passively cooled at the minimal clock until I could get a new fan. And by that I mean I screwed a large case fan into the heatsink's fins. I would've done it right with proper parts but  . It works great and rock solid today at 800 Mhz though.
