Intel Xeon overclocking

Hey all! I have an Intel Xeon 1231v3 which has a base clock of 3.4GHz and a 1 core boost of 3.8GHz. This chip is essentially an under-clocked Core i7 4790, with 4 cores and 8 threads. I like it a lot, but it would be great to achieve a few extra MHz from it. Does anybody have any advice? I have set the multiplier to 38 (the highest it will go I believe) from the standard 34, and changed the bus speed to 103MHz. This has netted me a nice little boost from 3.6GHz all core boost to 3.9GHz, which is great, I'm happy. I've done some stress tests and used it for about 15 minutes and it appears to be stable. Is there any long term issues with this approach that I should be aware of?
