Thanks,

Nearly 1.6V I'd have problems with running long-term. I try to never go over 1.45V for a CPU that I'd like to be with me for a while.

Yeah that cpu's not going to last long like that, unless you get really lucky.

cheers lads think ill turn it down tonight, i might loose 300mhz on the o/c but id reather do that than loose my chip

i had my E6600 on 1.5v on boxed cooler @ 3.5Ghz for a long time and later 1.6 @ 3.7Ghz on a gemenii the cpu is now a year old and still working

on the boxed cooler it gets HOT but it still working

I don't recommend anything over 1.5-1.53 volts for 65mn chips, and 1.41-1.44 volts for 45nm chips. You could get away with a higher voltage, but only if you don't expect to keep the chip long.
