Actually what happens is the Macs internal clock speeds up with the overclock, so if you look at the date and time, you'll notice that is moving a little faster. What you need to do is reboot your computer (not shutdown) and it should work. I don't have a Mac Pro, I'm just going by what others are saying.

Tracked down the audio problem... It's because I was using a USB sound card, presumably the buffer of audio is being sent to it at the wrong rate thanks to the increase in system bus speeds and clock timing.
Internal audio works fine, and I've now had it at 3.5Ghz for an hour or so under load which is none too shabby! :)
On another note why is there so many commenting about Macbooks/MBPs?!? The title clearly states Mac Pro, you laptop users need not apply!

About bloody time! I've been waiting for this forever! :)
I already have my graphics over clocked by hacking the ROM (and converted from a PC only card, as if I was going to pay for a 'Mac Version')
The cooling in the Mac Pro is rather good, Will hopefully get 3.4Ghz or so out of this :)

Well... it seems to have over clocked the machine, but I can't even play back an MP3, it just skips about every second or so :(

It *could* be unstable. Turn that O/C down and see if it goes back to normal.

@Hotrod:
So this utility turns Mac Pro's into a time machine? Sounds like a bonus feature to me.
