I did nothing special. AfterBurner allows to go up to 54MHz, and my m505 runs
fine at that speed.

I have checked that there is no adverse effect. It is running at that speed
since last August. I have also checked that the clock (time) is accurate.

But when you set the speed to a given value with AfterBurner, you might actually
get a different value. That's not AfterBurner's fault, the problem is the
DragonBall hardware (the PLL: frequency generator).

There is little difference between the 54 and 45 MHz settings, so I suspect that
it is not really running at 54MHz.
