No, because overclocking has already been ruled out as the possible cause of 
the problem.  Though it may "cloud" the results slightly, the alternative 
solution would be too restrictive a sampling.  A *lot* of people purchase an 
Abit system and overclock it.  It is not only accepted practice, but also 
expected.
It makes more sense to have 500 samples in the group, with the majority 
overclocked, than to have 5 samples in the group, all non-overclocked.
