Well your CPU now runs at 11*166. I think 12*166 would be recheable with stock cooling unless your CPU gets above 55 C on full load.

Increasing the VCore (CPU voltage) will put more poer on your CPU so it can handle the higher speed.

A good program to watch your temps is MBM 5, you can test CPU stability with Prime95.

My CPU fan spins so fast that it creates a wormhole
