Like Mental said, up the voltage.

Could be an unlucky chip, though.

Depends on what cooler you have. With a stock cooler, I wouldn't raise it. With a low-end air cooler, maybe 1.4v. With a high-end water cooler, 1.5v, I guess.

Up the voltage and clock a little at a time--make sure it stays under 60C and I would say that's a safe OC.
