depends on your motherboard/cpu cooler/ram, a whole lot of variables. what are your system specs?

there was no i7 920k. k chips came out in the second gen chips. you can OC the first gen chips by adjusting the bclck.

Make sure your ram frequency is at or below specification. Did you manually set ram voltage to factory? At such a small overclock, your boot issue sounds ram related. Most 920's are good for 3.6 and more with decent cooling.

i agree with cygnus. sounds like you need to bring the ram frequency down a bit
by the way what is your memory?
the i7-920 by default will recognize DDR3-800/1066
