A 32mhz crystal only gives you 8mhz. To get 12mhz you need a 48mhz
oscillator
The fastest ZipGS I've heard of is 16mhz, most cards top out at 12 to
15mhz
though.

See how far you can get without changing it.  Some cards don't seem to
require
the change. Also the chips soldered in so there's always a small risk in
changing
it.
