This is correct. Overclocking, unless done to the extreme, really doesn't increase performance that much.
For example, I keep my P4 2.4C at 2.9 ghz basically for shits and giggles plus the fact that I really don't care if it happens to fry (I'm due for a proc upgrade). Even with the .5 ghz increase I only gain 1000 points on Aquamark. So yes, while OC'ing may be a fun hobby, don't except your comp to go from slow to uber fast.
