Does setting higher voltages damage your cpu if temps are kept low?

[Deanodarlo]

Has anyone out there had their cpu damaged by overclocking and increasing voltage, even though temps were kept low by efficient cooling?

I'm no electrical engineer, but what I wondered was if the prime killer of o/c'ed CPU's is heat. Therefore any increases in voltage are fine just as long as it's accompanied with effective cooling measures in order to keep a low temp well within specs.

I'd love to here from some experts and people who have direct experience in early retiring (RIP) CPU's due to their o/c'ing exploits.

Thanks everyone.

As far as I know, heat is the major killer.
