because the clock generator is not always 100% dead-on accurate to what you set it. Expect a bit of fluctuation. It's not easy to have an electric pulse which is always the same all the time.

I won't come here and guarantee you that, as nothing is guaranteed with overclocking.

You'll have to provide more info before I can really even give you a proper answer.
