Ever since the first cpu was out, there were already people who are curious and are demanding in terms of getting the maximum performance of their respective computers. We all then learned to tweak our toys from the software up to the hardware.
Basically, when we say overclock, it goes outright as tweaking the hardware. Making it run more than it ordinarily does.
From my personal view, it was termed oveclocking because in the earlier days of the computer age, what matters is the frequency of the processor - and this speed is called "clock speed."
There is likewise a shadow of overclocking, we call it overvolting. As far as I have known, these two go hand-in-hand. Most of the time, when you increase the clock speed of the processor, the system will act freaky. Unstable. It's like increasing the bore of your engine without increasing the supply of gasoline from your caburator. It will most likely not be able to sustain the combustion in the cylinder head.
The logic goes this way - if you want to have more, expect to give more.
