I'd Go to tom's hardware or anandtech (i think thats the name) first and
check out their reviews on that, I think there has been some problem with
those chips overclocking.  I thought about doing that once, but I saw there
was an issue on some models that would overclock that high and some
wouldn't...some even went as high as 503 MHZ w/o raising the voltage, if I
remember right...
