Actually you did a decent enough job.
The only thing I would add is that you should be careful. I have a buddy that likes to overclock and he always consults me and shit. He was able to get his computer overclocked about 50% and it was still running at an ultra-cool 35% celsius.
But, like all things that appear to be fine, it turned out he didn't account for the fact that upping his motherboard speed put undue strain on all his slots, not just the AGP card, RAM, and processor. That eventually led to his sound card frying. It could have led to his network card dying (as he didn't have an onboard one).
The only advice I can give is to be careful that you don't try to push too much through the pipe. Just because things seem to be working fine doesn't mean your PCI cards aren't going to shit out on you or that at the top end your processor isn't burning a hole in your heatsink.
