PNY 6800 Overclocking

I used the "detect optimal frequencies" on the overclocking tab of the 66.81 forceware drivers. Using the suggested 363 GPU and 775 Mem settings boosts my performance by 10%. My question is should I even consider running full-time at the suggested overclock with no ramsinks and just the stock HSF for the GPU? Also, what would people suggest I do to the cooling system to overclock it even further?

I would like to run it overclocked b/c I am riding the 30 fps line on some onslaught levels in UT2004 at 1600x1200x32. If I don't overclock I will drop the resolution down a notch.
 
Based on the catastrophic problems Ive had with the card, I would say no.
 
Speaking of temps..... the driver shows a top end of the scale @ 135C. That seems rather hot. What temperature should I be staying under? Mine has been running under 62C.
