Root Is it possible?

Is it possible to potentially permanently screw up the hardware of my phone by setting the CPU at 748 when it can't handle it. Which in all actuality I'm not sure it can't. However when I set it to 748 using Playfulgods update my phone would constantly reboot itself. So I turned it down to 728 to see if it would operate properly then and the same thing happened.....so then I turned it back down to 710 and the same thing happened...

This lead me to believe that Either
1.setting my phone to 748 somehow damaged the hardware OR
2.There's a bug somewhere in the update (not saying anything PG, I think you did an awesome job, I'm just searching for answers)

I have on the otherhand reflashed Isaacs 521 and am running @ 710 once again without any issues whatsoever.......sooooo, I don't know maybe a bad download on my part on your ROM update PlayfulGod...I also did reflash it a few times with the same results?
 
i have mine set at 710 & Govern on SmartA$$, did you Govern yours? mine is running real smooth & fast...
 
Yes....yes, mine is clocked to 710 with the governor set to interactive and has been for a while, running fast and smooth.

That however is not the issue I addressed above. I was wondering if its possible to actually damage the phone by experimenting with the extra 38Mhz when I don't know for sure if my phone can handle it.

I think the only potential damage would be caused by overheating of the cpu, which I believe the rebooting is actually preventing any damage from happening by stopping it from getting too hot. Anyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong about that.
