I would certainly say - yes!
If you have a fan on it that would be better... Generally by default NB is 1.5v so i think 1.4 would be ok

Hey HDCHOPPER, I want to ask you about how you can get the boot menu to show at the boot, it says press "print" for boot menu, I press "print" but nothing happens

As long as you keep the NB cool, feeding it up to 1,6V shouldn't be a problem.
I run 1,55V MCH 24/7 on my DFI X38, NB watercooled to 34C load. Has been up and running like that for 6 months now, I think.. or maybe 9? :D
Unfortunately I need that much juice.. Quadcore + 4 sticks of mem + lots of OC needs + high FSB needs lots of juice :D

to hot to me is 50*c
but for shure it can take 70*c but a simple fan can fix that so why let it get thier
from what eye see and hear over 1.7volts doesnt help anything ... unless using dice ln2 maybe but havent heard of over 1.7v helping

hope that helps ya Saaya is da man to know he has engineers in his back pocket :D

50c for NB? I think it can handle 60c below and don't go above 60c.
