IMHO you wont see any increase in games if you overclock a gtx 650, probably 2-5 fps maximum rarelly. And overclocking GPU its not safe, you can get permanent gpu problems and even if you run some benchmarks and all looks stable, you can start having artifacts and having a lot of problems.
GPUS nowadays already come overclocked from factory if you have a non reference card. Tho if you really want that card is kinda good to overclock (at least with my old asus gtx 650 and i could increase clock for about 180-220mhz, and memory for 400mhz (tho i just tried it out once and stopped overclocking cause i just saw some 7-10% increase in some games and it was a very rough OC, so i could get problems)
Its up to you, hope i helped :)
