4800+ OCing help

[GMCUstom]

I orginally had a problem not passing Prime 95. 2.508Ghz was the highest I could go and still keep a stable system. However I have been messing around and increasing the CPU voltage. As of right now I am at 2.6GHz at 1.45V. I am still testing stability.

Now I was just wondering should I stop being greedy and head back to 2.508 at stock voltage or should I just keep going? Also what is the max voltage a 4800+ can take and how dangerous is overvolting a CPU?

I don't think I'd go higher that 1.5-1.525v. I am running my 4200+ @2.618ghz, 1.475v.

My limit is 1.575. I know of several people who have done 1.6 since the day the DFI nF4 boards came out, and that was a long time ago.
