Thanks for the tip twisted, I'll give that a shot today. From what i understand as long as you're under the max volts of your CPU and your temps aren't more than 70* overclocking won't damage or degrade your CPU.

Update: I tried your suggestion twisted but the BIOS posted into safe mode and demanded I change the CPU settings. I guess that 3.2 is going to be my limit which is kinda disappointing however it still runs everything as smoothly as butter.
