Overclocking

[kilo_17]

If I overclock my CPU, could it increase fps in DiRT 2?

Possibly. Overclocking your CPU is going to give you a bigger boost if your system is CPU bound, rather than GPU bound. What CPU, and video card are you using and what's your screen resolution?

AMD Athlon 2 X4 640

XFX Radeon HD 5550 1GB DDR2

1440x900

Looks like you'll be be GPU bound with that video card unless you're running on low settings. If you overclock you may see some FPS increase, but a video card upgrade would do more.
