Okay .. so I am newbie to this overclocking business .. I have done it on a PC before .. but never on a mac.

I have 2 G4's one 400mhz Yikes motherboard

And one 400mhz Sawtooth motherboard

How do I overclock them and what speeds can I get .. and do I need to add extra cooling fans etc???

Thanks ...

G4 strip allows for speeding up the L2 cache from about 199 mhz to 265.7 mhz. A noticeable improvement. Actual speedups regarding the CPU on Sawtooth - unknown. As far as Yikes? See xlr8yourmac.com.
