Tbird 700 FSB OC

I tried to unlock my CPU but I could barely see the bridges with my 20/20 eyes.

I decided to OC using 107Mhz FSB X 7 (749Mhz). So far so good, after about an hour of Prime 95 my CPU temp went from 40C (load before OC) to 45C (all temps measured using the inaccurate ASUS Probe).

My 3D Mark score went from 3666 to 3725. My machine seems faster is it safe to leave my machine running at this FSB or should I leave it alone until I get a magnifying glass?
 
Just keep in mind that is 214mhz the cpu is pushing ddr. I bought a cheap magnifing glass made it much easier. I just wish mechanical pencils came in a .25mm .5 looks huge near those bridges.😉
 
Yes .5 looks huge. What I was able to do looked too big. I think I have one of those lighted magnifying glass things somewhere in my dads garage now that I think about it. How long have you had your pencil mod running ive heard it wears off after a while is that true?
 
I finally got the pencil thing down. So far I am able to get it stable at 8.0 X 100. Is there any danger pushing it further. My temps actually are about the same or a little lower (38-40 degrees under load measured with the ever inaccuate ASUS Probe)
