Obviously their engineers grew up over-clocking AMD/Intel motherboards
then :)

I was initially concerned about the temperature the ad9288-40 is
running at when it's over clocked from 40 to 100Mhz, which won't be an
issue since they have a version that runs at 100Mhz, probably using
the same die.

I'd also be concerned about whether the 40Mhz part can convert at
100Mhz, but looking at the data sheet, there doesn't seem to be any
perceivable difference in the switching/dynamic characteristics, apart
from one each having a specified maximum conversion rate.

As long as the scope perfoms to spec, I don't see anything wrong
otherwise
