Do you mean also to raise the BCLK to 205 then Disable C1E and EIST as per your EasyTune?

Also I have a question about my CPU Cooler. I am using the Noctua 12p 1366 on my i7 920 and I am using a Y-connector for the 2 Fans(3-Pin) mounted on the Cooler to the CPU Fan Header(4-Pin) adapter. I have Smart Fan enabled and it is in the Auto setting. Is this the setting you would use for this? There are also choices in Smart Fan such as Voltage and PWN.

Yes I advise you disable C1E and EIST when overclocking, especially that high.

I do believe using a y connector may mess up smart fan, you may be best to disable this so they run at full speed or set that to voltage and see if it will adjust them or not.

Let me know if you need further help with your settings, if so please post them in full and let me know what you are trying to achieve
