yes..but you could potentially run into temp problems depending on how high you have to set the voltages to get stable.

Yes ... as long voltage is not too high.

Basically small steps in voltage and clock speed, then test for stability and temps.

Maybe. Depends on the lottery, really. Though I wouldn't expect such high OC on a low end cooler.
