    That is with the aid of a cooler to make sure things dont get too hot (but not for the sake of pushing it further).

    The reason i ask is because i like to use PCSX2 quite a bit, and a number of games are CPU bound so even an extra 200-400mhz would go a long way.

    Yes it is possible.

    Try to find the clock generator (PLL) on your motherboard, then check if it's supported by setFSB.

    If it's not supported, find the datasheet for the PLL, that will help you overclock (might need a pinmod).
