Intel spend millions designing this chip to run at a specific speed, all their stability testing is based around 3.5Ghz. It will *probably* erun faster, but you might hit on some defect that will make it crash since it was never tested at 4.5Ghz. It's also designed to reach a certain temperature at the native clock speed, if it runs faster it's going to get hotter and heat destroys components. The people building the machine probably put in a bigger fan/heatsink to compensate, but how long until it's crudded up and you're having issues?
Also honestly you're never even going to notice the difference, actual speed is about more than clock speed these days (the number of Ghz) so why bother risking it
