Have to ask why you would want to do that?
CentOS is an enterprise OS designed to give as stable a platform as
possible so overclocking your processor is kinda going against the aim
of using it.

That said i presume that as the actual overclocking is done at the
bios level then the OS shouldn't really be involved.
-you either render the underlying hardware unstable or not depending
on how high you set the front side bus or sufficient cooling of the
processor, north bridge, southbridge, memory chips, power regulators,
add-in cards, etc

hardocp.com and overclockers.com would prolly give you more info but
will be mainly (if not totally) windows based.
