Well, I'm running at 100MHz x 6 right now.
I take full responsibility for my actions.
Are there any signs I should watch out for?
if at all possible, you should run memtest86 (or similar) for a few
hours to ensure the memory performance hasn't suffered. i keep a
memtest86 on my grub boot menu at all times.
the poor man's test would be to stress the hell outta your box with lots
of heavy lifting - perhaps recompiling the kernel over, and over, and
over again to see if strange gcc errors occur. such strange errors are
usually an indication of an unhappy cpu or memory.
