I have a 8600gts and It is clocked to 730mhz, How much of a preformance boost would i get by overclocking it on a game like crysis, and how much should i overclock it to?

You'll probably get a couple frames increase. Overclocking doesn't increase preformance by that much. Overclock till it can run Crysis stable (no crashing or artifacting) and make sure your temps don't skyrocket above 100 C .
