i cant find an in-depth VGA overclocking guide anywhere. does anyone know of any good ones, or can perhaps just answer the following questions?

1. how exactly do you find the limit of your Core or Memory clock? is it practical to keep one at default frequency while overclocking the other until artifacts or stability issues arise?
2. is it best to maintain a specific ratio between Core and Memory clocks (ie, if stock speed is 500 core/1000 mem, do you have to keep a 1:2 ratio between them)? or are they totally independant?
3. how do you increase the voltage of your video card? is it the AGP/PCI ratio in BIOS, or is that something different?
4. what are some physical mods that you can do, and what do they do? ive heard the terms volt mod, pencil mod, etc, but have no idea how to do them or what they're for.

thanks in advance.
