Does anyone know what the max safe voltage is for these things? I had one running well in a ECS P6VXM2T, (minus a brain dead bios that kept asking me to set the mul in the bios, something that was basically impossible and was correct anyway), performance was what I expected, etc, when I noticed vcore in bios was 1.5v. Afaik, 1.4v is the standard for these chips. Temps were ok, staying about 63 degrees C. I just want to know if those voltage levels are safe long term or if its getting to a level where the silicon won't tolerate t for long no matter the temp. I tried my 1.2 ghz Nehemiah and it reads 1.49 in bios with similar temps. It's be nice if I could put the Ezra back in, it'd allow a bit more flexibility with the lower fsb: I checked modbin and all of the fsb frequencies were unlocked and yet I can't set most of them in bios, only a slightly lower one and a few higher ones, so a 133 fsb is pretty limiting as far as downclocking is concerned.
