Whether overclocking is an achievement depends on why you want to do it in the first place. For many tinkerers, the only answer is also the simplest: "So I can tell my peers/rivals that I did it." Overclocking is a challenge loaded with risks and annoyances, and doing it well is often a source of pride—and bragging rights—for those who love building and upgrading their own computers. Surpassing the 5 or 6GHz barrier on a CPU earns you geek cred.
Others do it to get more performance out of their PC than they paid for, whether in the short or the long term. Their rationale is that they can get high-end CPU power out of a budget priced part. (Automotive enthusiasts are guilty of this type of behavior all the time: "The manufacturer says I can go from zero to 60mph in 10.6 seconds out of this economy car. Let's see if I can fiddle with the engine and get that down to 4.5 seconds!")
