turbo adds like .2v to whatever your settings are. so stock it gives it about 1.5v

check the very first page of this thread for what kind of clocks and cooling people have used for 8 hours of stress testing.

i would say 1.55v is probably the highest you can go for 24/7 and not get any degradation. 1.6 should be fine if you have water

and temps on thuban seem to be better lower in any case. as ive found out, any voltage you want, probably wont help if your over 60C

just read like everything from the very first post and it will give you lots of ideas for what is possible. (temps, clocks, volts, cooling methods, motherboards, max NB/HT, etc)
