I find running at 520 to be faster than running at 415 - therefore not irrelevant.. You should have no fear of running at 520 (in case that's why you said it was irrelevant).
The CrazyChicken is right!

I think we are saying the same thing here. So, I decided to "Wikipedia" this and I have mis-spoken a tiny bit.
What I was talking about is the definition of overclocking is:
"Overclocking is the process of forcing a computer component to run at a higher clock rate than it was designed for
We have no idea what this chip was designed for, so you are merely "clocking" the chip at what you feel is a comfortable speed. Thus, there is nothing "over" about it.
Now - Where I misspoke was, wikipedia continues the definition to include the following:
or was designated by the manufacturer."
This should not be here!!!! I think that someone edited the Wikipedia entry to make me wrong! But in any case, I did mis-speak a little about overclocking.
I still think that overclocking and PPC should not be used in the same sentence, but that is just my personal opinion, since wikipedia proved me wrong.
