Anyone overclocked a voodoo 4?

Hey yea, I have a voodoo 4 4500, and I am wondering how fast it can be overclocked safely. I have NO experience overclocking anything, so any help would be great!

Its not a matter of "safe" as it is experimentation.
1.) make sure u have plenty of cooling.
2.) realize that even with great cooling any overclock on any hardware will always shrink a parts life span.
3.) over clock by increments till u get artifacts or crashes.then go back a bit till its safe again and ur set.

< / end real advice>
