Depends on how you take your FSB to decide if you need to change that or not. If you begin to determine instabilities when running high bus speeds, you can try raising DIMM voltage...does work sometimes.
2.7V would hardly be dangerous though. I've got as much as 3.20V going through some memory at times. Just make sure you have good airflow as heat's the real danger to memory.
IMO I wouldn't reccomend going over 2.8V unless you have active cooling and Crucial memory.
Crucial is one of a few brands of memory which really benfits from higher voltage, however I would cool it if you go over 3V.
I've positioned a Delta blowing through the memory with
cable ties.
Remember a basic rule, Heat Kills, not voltage!
Good Luck
P.S. With Crucial actively cooled and 3.2V 80% of people manage over 165FSB @ Cas2. I can do 170FSB Cas 2 (all other timings at their best ) with 3 sticks of memory!
