Overclocking R6300v2

Hi there, I could not find anything related to overclocking this box (AC1450/R6300v2) anywhere, so wanted to see if anyone else has tried it and what works. To my knowledge, the Netgear R6300v2 has similar hardware as the Asus RT-AC56U, so I was hoping for similar potential.

I flashed the AC1450 into the R6300v2 and then put Tomato (Shibby) on it. First default "nvram get clkfreq" check said 800,533. I tried 800,666 and 1000,666 so far, and the router accepted all of the above and rebooted with the adjusted values set. Temperatures remain between 71-75C.

I will let it run for a few days and then play some more. Anybody else who tried other values?

Love any response on this as well. Running DD-WRT
