You can follow this guide. Basically it is adjusting the Multipliers or the FSB.

should i go with 4.5ghz or lesser to be on the safe side?

If increase fsb, all will be affected like rams right? All clocked higher.

4.4ghz lo..or maybe 4ghz. 4.5ghz quite ok

Depends how hot your chip runs and how much power is needed.
