No
The only way to be sure is to test it, and leave your clocks alone you have enough going on
I actually prefer Open Hardware Monitor 0.3.2 Beta for monitoring temps

Run prime95 in windows with your temp monitor running

The temp should not get about 70c under a load
Also I dont know if you read the instruction on thermal paste but its important. To much paste is bad. It a grain of rice
