Default Question on one of my chest excersizes...

I have been steadily going up in my dumbell presses lately and here is where I am. Today, this is what I did:

(each hand)

60: 12x
65: 10x
70: 7x (failure)
75: 2x (failure)

In my previous workouts (over the past 5-6 weeks), I had been going up 5# on the starting weight. For example, last time, I started w/ 55#. usually my last set I would get 4x before failure.

For the next time, should I start w/ 65#? Or should I repeat the 60-75# range until I can do at least 4 for the last set. I'm afraid if I go up, I'll only hit like 3 and conk out on the third set and have absolutly nothing left for the last one.
