For experienced gurus! How high can i go with my io voltage!

[Odin30]

Just trying to get opinions on how high is a safe voltage for your io?
I currently am running at 3.7 and would like to try higher to get more overclock from my vid card as it seems the higher i go with my io the better i can overclock.
But i want to be somewhat safe about it anyone know the limits my vidcard and other things will take? Or any experience with this?
Thanks guys for your input!

In my experience about 10% over spec is the limits of safety when it comes to raising voltage unless you take special messures to reduce heat etc. Remember it is excess voltage that causes electron migration. Since the regular io voltage is 3.3v about 3.8 should be your upper limit. I personally wouldn't go much higher than 3.6 or 3.7. I definatly would not recomment about 3.9.
