While I don't have an ACA 620/630, overclocking requires a hardware modification where the timing crystal is replaced with a faster one.  The CPU may tolerate a small amount of speed increase, but often fails within 10% or less of tolerance.  Replacing the CPU with a higher rated one may allow further over clocking, but the supporting chips may not.  You have to ask yourself one question, "Do you feel lucky?"  Or grasp a concept, "Simply put, a 6 ounce sparrow cannot carry a one pound coconut!"

Look for a set (2 or3) tiny SMD appearing traces and either cut or solder one to achieve the new divider.  Google overclocking the CSPPC for an example.  You will need a guide to which one to mess with, or do trial and error.

Wise decision.
