Do you mean an oscillator of some sort? I don't know anything about overclocking a nes, but I've never heard of using a clock to oc something... I may be wrong...

Some games slow down when there's a lot of sprites on the screen. There's a few side affects of overclocking (some sound and graphic glitches sometimes), but it's a fun project and that's why we do these things right?
