Is it worth OverClocking the PCI Express Bus?

so are there any pros to say bumping it up to 105 mhz in my bios? just curious to see what others have found or if its just a waste of time and makes the system less stable. Opinions and experiences please:
 
Here is another thread from a day or so ago about the same issue. Not many folks have experience with it. Here most people didn't seem to have tried it and didn't think it would help to much.
I would recommend giving it a shot and see...
 
No. OCing the PCI-E bus can lead to instability far faster than OCing other components. You already have MORE than enough bandwidth so, OCing will get you virtually nothing (Save for perhaps a faster stream of data).

I believe the new Nforce boards have a feature that OC's it automatically (Linkboost). It does virtually nothing.

Leave it where it is.

If you have absolutely nothing else left to OC and you are virtually on the edge, in desperation for one more FPS to get from 7999 in 3DMark06 over 8K AND/OR you are extremly bored and have nothing else conceivable to do then sure, it's the way to go. Otherwise there is no justifiable reason to fiddle with it.
