It depends on your board, your memory, your karma, the sun, the moon,
the alighment of all the above, and most importantly, how lucky you
are...

Remember, you are doing something that the manufacturer did not engineer
into the motherboard/processor, and you may, or may not, get away with
it.

Yes, many are sucessfull with this.  However, you usually don't hear of
the disasters because of the embarrasment involved...  I have replaced
many a motherboard/processor destroyed by clock-chipping.

Just keep one thing in mind.  It may work, or you may damage your
computer.
