I do overclock my rig a bit as you can see from my sig. As mentioned above, the key is stability and controlled temperatures. Stability can be proven through long stress testing and temperature control results from using heat tubes for air cooling or water or nitrogen liquid cooling.

With that said, will you see significant improvements in BIAB generation times...marginally...I do notice some with a slightly less than 10% overclock.

Since you have a K series processor and if you'd like to play with this a bit, take a look at a special app from Intel called ETU, Extreme Tuning Utility.

If you do overclock, be sure to run extended stress tests after you tweak the processor and cache ratios. Run the stress test for hours!

If you gone too far, your system will shut down during an extended stress test or during a defrag or during a full virus scan...all of which place huge loads on the system. More than likely this will result from temps getting to high. If this happens back off on the processor and cache ratios.

Only use the basic tuning section, do not go into the advanced tuning section or you risk serious issues.
