What's a reasonable price to be charged for overclocking processor/video card?

I own an Intel I-7 2600K 3.4 GHZ processor and a Gforce GTX 560 1GB video card. I want to overclock both to make them run faster, but don't feel comfy doing it myself. What's a reasonable price to pay a tech to overclock both of these?|||Personally, I'd do it for about $25. It can be risky and it can be frustrating. An IT tech working at an IT store would probably expect somewhere around $40 - $50 to do it for you.|||It would take a couple of hours, and I charge $50 per hour. Plus $25 travel fee unless you bring it into the shop.|||So you feel more comfortable giving a stranger money to do something you won't learn to do yourself?
