Right, I'm using the standard heatsink that arrived with the CPU, I've always overclocked to 208x11 but recently I've upped that to 212x11 giving me 2.33ghz. In turn my cpu on full load is hitting around 53'c - I'm wondering, without extra cooling, how far I can push this CPU judging by temp, whats the highest 'safe' temperature for it.

I'm probably gona end up buying extra cooling, but for now just wondering.

The temperature and stability will likely go hand-in-hand. You can slowly push the speed up and when it's too hot, 3D games and intensive applications will crash for sure. Most likely with that CPU and cooling, it won't be stable past 56-60 degrees Celsius.

If I were going to overclock again I would go with liquid cooling, no doubt.
